Material Composition | Agricultural storage, food processing | ▲ Industry: Mild steel (uncoated) ▲▲ Base: Galvanized steel (ASTM A123, 85µm coating) ▲▲▲ Advanced: 304 Stainless Steel (ASTM A240, 2B finish) | Enhanced corrosion resistance in Base/Advanced tiers. Advanced resists harsh chemicals. | Higher cost for galvanized (Base) and stainless (Advanced) materials. |
Capacity | Small farms (Base), Large operations (Advanced) | ▲ Industry: Fixed sizes (e.g., 5t only) ▲▲ Base: Adjustable 3t–10t ▲▲▲ Advanced: Modular up to 15t (ISO-certified scalability) | Flexible sizing for diverse needs. Advanced supports bulk storage for industrial use. | Industry-standard silos lack scalability; Advanced requires more space. |
Durability | Harsh outdoor environments | ▲ Industry: 500hr salt spray resistance (ASTM B117) ▲▲ Base: 1000hr salt spray resistance ▲▲▲ Advanced: 2000hr salt spray resistance | Base/Advanced withstand extreme weather and corrosive environments. | Higher material costs for advanced coatings. |
Safety Features | Hazard-prone storage areas | ▲ Industry: Basic locking lid ▲▲ Base: Reinforced lid + safety latch ▲▲▲ Advanced: Smart sensors (leak/damage detection, ISO 13849) | Advanced prevents spills and structural failures. Base reduces manual handling risks. | Advanced requires electricity for sensors; Industry lacks critical safeguards. |
Installation | Remote locations, limited resources | ▲ Industry: Requires heavy machinery ▲▲ Base: Modular, tool-based assembly (ISO 9001 compliance) ▲▲▲ Advanced: Pre-assembled, plug-and-play | Base/Advanced reduce labor and time. Advanced minimizes on-site errors. | Advanced may incur higher shipping costs. |
Customization | Specialized storage needs (e.g., poultry) | ▲ Industry: Limited to standard shapes/sizes ▲▲ Base: Color, size adjustments ▲▲▲ Advanced: Full customization (shape, capacity, smart integration) | Advanced meets niche requirements (e.g., poultry feed storage). | Base/Advanced require longer lead times for tailored solutions. |
