Storage and Dosing Solutions for the Food Industry
The food industry requires storage and handling equipment adapted to the strictest sanitary requirements. At Syvrac, we support manufacturers in this sector with solutions designed to ensure food safety, optimize production flows, and maintain the traceability of raw materials in bulk or powder form. Our silos, containers, and dosing systems are engineered to guarantee optimal product preservation while complying with FDA, HACCP, IFS, EHEDG, and EC 1935/2004 standards.
Thanks to our innovations, such as our Easyvrac® patent, we facilitate the maintenance and replacement of flexible silo liners. This guarantees enhanced hygiene for flours, sugars, cereals, and other food powders. Our solutions, which include flexible silos and mobile hopper containers for powders, also enable the optimization of storage space and the reduction of operating costs. Our automation solutions and the automated management of our processes and equipment ensure precise monitoring of potential contamination, material levels, and food safety.

Powders Handled by Syvrac Storing Powders: True Expertise
Each material presents unique constraints, and selecting inappropriate equipment can lead to blockages, product loss, and production halts.
For instance: icing sugar and granulated sugar. Both are sugar, yet they behave entirely differently in a silo. Granulated sugar flows readily and can be stored without specialized equipment. Conversely, icing sugar is an ultra-fine, compact powder that settles and forms arches, completely obstructing extraction. Without genuine expertise, correct storage and discharge are unachievable.
At Syvrac, we are powder storage specialists. We recognize that in the agri-food sector, every product carries specific requirements. Our solutions are engineered to address the challenges faced by the biscuit, bakery, dairy, beverage, spice, and vegetable protein industries. We master the constraints of hygiene, flowability, and traceability, developing equipment that meets the most rigorous standards of the agri-food sector.
In summary, wheat and buckwheat flours remain the primary powders used in industrial crêpe production, but other ingredients such as starches, sugars, salts, and leavening powders play a key role in recipes. The storage and transfer of these materials necessitate tailored solutions, such as flexible silos with vibrating bases, precise weighing systems, and fluidization devices to prevent compaction.
Wheat and Wheat Flour
Wheat flour is a fundamental ingredient in the agri-food industry, used in baking, pastry-making, and for manufacturing pasta and sauces. Its storage requires rigorous management of humidity and ventilation to prevent lump formation and insect proliferation.
Sugar
Crystallized Sucrose
Powdered sugar is widely used in confectionery, dairy products, and beverages. Its storage requires hermetic silos to prevent moisture absorption and crystallization, which can block the flow.
Cocoa Powder
Cocoa powder is a product sensitive to moisture and cross-contamination. It requires silos with adapted ventilation systems and fluid extraction to prevent arching (void formation).
Starch
Corn Starch, Wheat Starch, Potato Starch
Starch is used as a thickener in numerous food applications. Its storage requires silos equipped with fluidization to ensure homogeneous flow and prevent settling phenomena.
Dairy Powders
Powdered Milk, Whey, Milk Proteins
Dairy powders are particularly sensitive to moisture and must be stored in silos with temperature regulation and air drying systems. Their handling must adhere to strict standards to prevent any contamination.
Semolina and Cereals
Rice, Durum Wheat, Corn
Semolina and cereals are bulk products requiring silos with good aeration to prevent the development of mold and insects. Weighing and supervision solutions allow for optimal management.
Vegetable Proteins
Soy, Pea, Wheat Gluten
Vegetable proteins are increasingly utilized in food formulations. They must be stored in hermetic silos to prevent contamination and ensure their stability.
Food-Grade Salt
Sodium Chloride, Fine Salt, Rock Salt
Food-grade salt must be stored in silos resistant to corrosion, particularly those made of isophthalic resin or wood, to prevent deterioration from moisture and guarantee flowability during extraction.
Spices and Seasonings
Turmeric, Paprika, Cinnamon, Pepper
Powdered spices are often volatile and require storage with precise control of humidity and aeration conditions to preserve their aromas. Storage systems must be versatile to adapt to frequent recipe changes.
Dry Yeast and Malt for Brewing
Dry yeast and malt are utilized in the manufacturing of beer and fermented products. Their storage must be carried out in silos with aeration devices and precise weighing systems for controlled dosing.
