We manufacture our hoppers in the highest quality of stainless steel and construct them to rigorous safety and compliance standards. We manufacture each make to GMP specifications and strengthen it adequately to be used in a cleanroom or sterile use.
-
Storage Hopper
We produce Storage Hoppers for long-term safe storage of dry bulk commodities. The hoppers have continuous discharge capability and can be easily scaled up for industrial application. They are made to work continuously under challenging conditions.
Key Features of our Hoppers
Being the best hopper exporters in India, our all types of hopper are manufactured with multiple types of features inside such as:
-
Strong Structure
All Hoppers of Storage are built to specification with premium material such as stainless steel, mild steel, and FRP. From highly demanding Sanitation-Sensitive Stainless Steel Hopper to heavy duty Plastic Hopper for light dry material, every hopper is built to sustain hard industrial wear. Strict fabrication and precise welding guarantee every hopper shall meet the structure integrity specification and be subjected to strict quality inspections.
-
Intelligent Flow Control
Our hopper solutions are based on intelligent technology as their backbone. PLC-controlled controls, self-discharge gates, and level sensors integrated, our systems ensure accurate material discharge and cycle-efficient control. From batch size automation to flow rate control, our flow-controlled hoppers reduce human intervention to a great extent while ensuring maximum operation accuracy.
-
Corrosion & Abrasion Resistance
For harsh material uses, we offer surface treatment like chemical-resistant coating and abrasion-resistant lining. Our Stainless Steel Jacketed Hoppers are especially ideal for corrosive and temperature uses, offering toughness and thermal control. For highly restrained material flow, we even offer ceramic linings that offer a very long operation life for the hopper.
-
Eco-Engineered Designs
Our hoppers reduce the loss of energy by using gravity-fed discharge systems. In clean handling, some of our models come equipped with dust suppression as a standard to allow for removal of airborne contamination and provision of a cleaner work environment. These green features assist your operation in complying with the environment and may lead to facility sustainability certification.

Advantages of Selecting our Hoppers
These all types of hoppers are built with multiple types of features inside and give multiple benefits such as:
-
Improved Material Flow
Our hoppers are designed to prevent problems such as clogging rat-holing and bridging that may lead to downtime. We use simulation models in all our designs to provide you with an even flow. This ensures you of reliable performance even when working with sticky or brittle materials.
-
Personal Fit & Flexibility
Our hoppers fit comfortably into your area without demanding adaptation of your underlying infrastructure. Our modular installations can be moved in or out, or expanded when your manufacturing needs change. You gain installation time and the avoidance of costly structural adjustments.
-
Automation-Ready Systems
We design our hoppers automation-ready to interface with new automation systems such as SCADA PLC and remote monitoring systems. This enables you to control and monitor your operation real-time in one dashboard. Our designs also enable IoT integration for predictive maintenance and logging of data.
-
Reducing Operating Costs
With less maintenance required and effective material handling our hoppers allow you to reduce operating costs. You get more material usage and less spillage that means cleaner, more efficient processes. In the long term, that means big savings in costs and increased profitability.
Applications of our Hoppers
These all types of hoppers are large used in various types of industrial sectors such as:
-
Cement & Construction
Our wear-resistant steel finds application in handling our hoppers employed for cement aggregates feeding sand and other hard material. The hoppers perform adequately in batching and mixing service providing even and timely feed. Their heavy-duty construction allows them to perform adequately in high-vibration and heavy-duty application.
-
