Ibbenbüren/Germany, August 2024 – Wheat processor Crespel & Deiters commissioned the construction of a new €18.5m silo building at the beginning of the year – the largest single investment in infrastructure in the company’s history. This new development aims to expand storage and handling capacities while securing the company’s value chain, and ability to operate flexibly and globally. Collaboration with regional partners is also playing a crucial role in the project.

The company has been continuously expanding the factory premises at its main site. In 2018, the MT facility (flour storage and separation plant) was established with an innovative combination of raw material storage, loading bridges and machinery. Three years later, the A-starch dryer, designed for energy efficiency, hygiene and operational reliability, was commissioned. With these investments and the commissioning of the new silo building, Crespel & Deiters aims to make the entire production process more efficient in order to continue to provide unrivalled service and top-quality products for its customers.

Regional roots, global connections


In order to bring the project to fruition, Crespel & Deiters has been collaborating with regional partners for the benefit of the local economy. Steffen von Glahn, COO of the Crespel & Deiters Group, explains: “The functionality and development of our sites form the basis of our global operations. The Ibbenbüren location is the foundation of our activities, as this is where the primary processing and refining processes take place. Investing in infrastructure is a clear commitment to our headquarters in increasingly uncertain circumstances. At the same time, we are strengthening partnerships with valued local contractors and, thus, our supply chain network.”
