The retiring year was completely dominate by major exploitation at Bucon Industries . For example , Peter Bulsing transferred his position as Managing Director to Erik Passchier . Both gentlemen are well known in the horticultural sphere , and from Bergschenhoek Erik is now in charge of Bucon Industries - because the move to Bergschenhoek is now a fact . Previously the offices were already travel , and at the final stage of 2018 also the machines were move from Leeuwarden to the southwestern United States of the Netherlands . shortly everything will be set up and well aligned in the production hall .

The move was of course also a good moment to wait at optimisation of the machines . Erik Passchier : " Of course , the silos that we produce meet the highest requirements . However , our production employee had a few interesting ideas and we were capable to enforce these immediately . We have impart out an rise that again gives us extra possibility . "

In Bergschenhoek Marc de Loyer has also assumed the role as Back Office manager . Marc : " The auto have been offline for about two weeks , but because a large fund of semi - ruined mathematical product was acquire to begin with , the deliveries could just persist in usually . “The categorical , already coat steel is corrugated by an almost forty meter long profiling machine .

RustRust on the silos is the nightmare of every grower . A silo can be rejected , or even worse , tear assailable , and thus cause with child damage .

Bucon has been able to make an agreement with steel supplier Arcelor Mittal that they have the sole rights to apply Magnelis for corrugated sword silos . Magnelis galvanisation consists of a patented combination of atomic number 30 , magnesium and aluminum . Erik : " Through foresighted - term research the optimal relationship between the three materials was found . The result : extremely serious anti - corrosion property compared to all other shape of galvanizing . "

Erik : " This steel is rust - resistant to such a degree that the covering is not really needed any longer . There will always be a demand for coated silo , even if only from an visual compass point of panorama , so we simply add them . But I dare to supply this brand without coating . “Erik Passchier next to a extra solid silo where it is clearly visible that the downcast and upper waves are face outwards .

DetailsAlso the structure was bet into again . Both the bottom and the top wave of the steel are facing outwards at the Bucon silos . Otherwise the bottom wave has a tendency to bulk away somewhat during the ‘ settlement ’ of the silo , so that the down in the mouth words of bolts can be pressed into the footing . And at the top , the pulling mightiness of the sometimes sound liner , sometimes mix with a tension tarp , also can cause problems . By having the last wave also facing outward , the steel braces itself , as it were , against this form of press . So here too , extra sturdiness is create . Incidentally , there are also customers who , for example in view of the replenishment of jury , want the wave outside , and that is also potential at Bucon . These two silo only need promotion to be ready for transport to the customer .
