ADVERTORIAL: KOTZUR

SUPERB SILOS SINCE 1962

Kotzur is an Australian owned and operated third-generation family business with almost 70 years’ experience in the industry.

Kotzur is a proud Australian-owned, third-generation family business that was established in 1953. The business started in a small shed in the NSW town of Walla Walla offering general engineering services, shed construction and the manufacturing of gates. Since then, Kotzur has grown into a well-recognised name for engineering and manufacturing of quality gas sealed silos.

In 1962, Kotzur started to design and manufacture transportable grain silos and by 1972 they had ceased all other manufacturing to focus entirely on the grain silo production. In 1985, after three years of designing and upgrading, the first gas tight sealed transportable silo was produced. The first on ground silo was constructed in 1994.

In 2016 Kotzur acquired the Downfields Engineering grain handling manufacturing business in Toowoomba (QLD). They also operate a sales office in Perth (WA) to service their expanding customer base.

Servicing customers across agriculture, industrial and commercial sectors has underpinned the continuing growth of the company, along with skilled and experienced teams in sales, design, manufacture, projects management and install which have all contributed significantly to the longevity of the Kotzur business.

Kotzur on-ground sealed silos are factory manufactured and assembled on-site and models range from 350 tons up to 15,000 tons in size. Aeration is offered across the silo range to maintain grain quality, which is particularly important in larger silos.

The company also offers a wide range of elevated cone bottom silo models in both a transportable and large elevated built on site models up to 666 tons of wheat. These sealed silos can be used for general storage offering medium- to long-term storage in a range of segregation levels. They can also be used as a hospital silo for pest eradication of infested grain.

In addition, Kotzur offers a range of silos to safely store fertilizer and feed pellets and silos with drying capabilities using their patented plenum system.

Kotzur products are truly “Australian owned”, and the company is proud to display the distinctive green and gold logo. The business prides itself on being one of the few full integrated domestic storage and handling providers. Products and facilities are designed and manufactured in Australia to meet Australian quality standards as well as to withstand the harsh Australian conditions.
