Grain Bunkers
Gwydir Group is one of Australia’s top manufacturers and suppliers of grain bunkers; offering both steel and precast concrete systems to deliver versatile and reliable bulk storage solutions.
Why Choose a Bunker?
Grain bunkers are ideal for producers needing flexibility. Unlike fixed silos or sheds, they can be disassembled and relocated as your seasonal or site requirements change.
Concrete Bunkers (Grain Walls)
Our precast concrete grain walls, in partnership with Conron Stockcrete®/Civilcast, are purpose-built for on-site storage of grain, fertilizer, nuts, sand, gravel, and other dry commodities.
-
Material strength: Made from 45 MPa concrete reinforced with synthetic fibers and steel.
-
Configuration: Standard panels are 3 m long × ~1.03 m high × ~0.7 m base, weighing approximately 1.2 t each.
-
Connectivity: Built-in ferrells and hot-dipped galvanised plates ensure secure joins.
-
Design benefits:
-
Modular U-shaped setups that maximise pad capacity.
-
Clean, hygienic, and efficient—easier to maintain than earth bunkers or steel walls.
-
Tarp-friendly curved top edge and clamping system enable effective gas-tight sealing for fumigation.
-
Durable and relocatable, with straightforward installation and removal.
Steel Bunkers
Our fully galvanised steel bunker walls offer a lighter, more portable alternative:
-
Wall height: 750 mm, with lengths customised to your site layout.
-
Sealing system: Lock-in mechanism supports tight gas fumigation.
-
Advantages: Cost-effective, transportable, and backed by our ongoing maintenance services to ensure continued performance.
Aeration Systems
Gwydir Group provides tailored aeration systems for both concrete and steel bunker walls:
-
Enhance storage hygiene by reducing moisture, mold, and insect activity.
-
Support grain quality control, extend safe storage life, and prevent germination losses.
Tarpaulins
Gwydir Group distributes Landmark® polyfabric tarps, designed expressly for grain bunkers:
-
Superior properties: Excellent lay‑flat performance and cracking resistance.
-
Halves the weight of PVC, fully recyclable, and backed by a 5‑year UV warranty.
-
Available in multiple weights, sizes, and colours—trusted across Australia for elite bunker protection.
