- Flow originating directly from the farms
- On-site standardisation if required
Pre-processing silo/
Qualitative and tailored multimodal solutions for industrial companies/
- Sorting lines that can be adapted and combined according to customer needs
- In-depth analysis from receipt to dispatch
- Comprehensive multimodal logistics offer
Import-export terminal adapted to specific trades/

- Able to meet tailored specifications
- Silo sizing
TECHNICAL ABILITIES
- 12,000 tonnes of maritime loading per day, 4,000 tonnes of unloading
- Complete multimodal logistics for receipt and dispatch: ship, barge, truck, train, container
- Grain processing: sorting, cleaning, crushing, sizing, assembly, drying
- Pre-processing: refined sorting according to density, and optical sorting
- Able to jointly conduct loading/unloading operations in high-volume ports and slow-rate standardisation operations.
- Quality allotment thanks to in-depth analysis upon receipt, and numerous available cells (lots of small cells).
- Insect eradication through targeted disinsectisation and fumigation in air-tight cells. Quality approach
- Dust extraction throughout the entire circuit, to isolate any particles in a dust chamber.
