Since the 1970s, our team at Merritt Mechanical Fabrication has been equipping agricultural professionals with the top-quality structures they need to keep their businesses running smoothly. Our crop storage buildings, for instance, are always designed with durability, longevity, and functionality in mind, ensuring our clients can get many years of use out of these vital structures.
In this article, we’d like to review some key features of excellent crop storage buildings and explain why we take extra care to incorporate these features into every project. Here are some essential characteristics of quality crop storage buildings:
- Durable Materials: We only use durable materials from trusted suppliers to ensure lasting resiliency to the elements.
- Plenty of Ventilation: Proper crop storage requires precise temperature and humidity control, and ventilation plays a key role in both of these processes. Adequate ventilation and temperature control systems will help prevent mold growth, premature spoilage, and other issues.
- Pest Protection: Critters like birds, rodents, and mice can wreak havoc on your supply if they manage to get inside your storage facility. We make sure to carefully and thoroughly seal the space and cover any potential entry points to minimize the risk of pest infestations.
- Customizable Features: A great crop storage building should be able to grow and expand with your operation as needed. Some buildings are designed with modular features, making it convenient to switch up the layout as the seasons or your needs change.
