Clean Weighting Solutions: How Silo Bags Keep Your Silage Covered

Every livestock farmer knows that preserving top-quality feed is a race against time and the elements. Once your harvest is safely packed into the bunker, the real challenge begins: maintaining a tight, airtight seal to prevent spoilage.

For generations, old vehicle tyres have been the default solution for weighing down bunker covers. But let’s face it—while tyres get the job done, they bring unnecessary clutter and hidden hazards to the farmyard. Stagnant water breeds pests, and worst of all, degrading steel cords inside old tyres introduce the severe risk of wire disease in your livestock.

It is time to modernize your feed storage with a cleaner, safer, and far more professional approach: T&H Silo Bags.

A Smarter Way to Weight Your Covers

Designed specifically to replace old tyres, T&H silo bags transform how you manage your clamps and bunkers. Once filled, their specialized oblong shape ensures that covers are held securely in place, delivering maximum sealing effectiveness right along the seams and edges where air leaks love to hide.

Switching to woven silo bags brings immediate benefits to your daily operations:

• Protect Livestock Health: Completely eliminate old tyres to prevent the dangerous risk of wire disease from exposed steel cords.
• Safer & Eco-Friendly: Enjoy an easier, cleaner, and more environmentally sustainable weighting solution.
• Built to Last: Crafted from robust woven netting material designed with a lifespan of at least five years.
• Effortless Management: Quick and easy to move or reposition as silage is taken from the face.
• Tidy Farmyard Storage: Pallet storage is simple and organized, keeping your yard looking sharp and professional.

Best Practices for the Field

To get the absolute best sealing performance out of your silo bags, proper placement is key:

• Lay the bags securely around the entire perimeter of your clamp.
• Apply a double layer on the front edge and along all cover seams to completely lock out wind lift and air infiltration.
