Symaga reinforces their presence in the brewery industry with new project in Colombia

October 22, 2024 - When designing the AB InBev's new brewery plant in Salamina, Meura selected Symaga silos for the construction of the malt storage plant in Barranquilla, Colombia. AB InBev has relied on our expertise to provide the maximum protection of their malt.

The new facility is located in a highly corrosive environment, which requires special protection to maintain the quality of the malt. The silos feature a lining, double wall cover and a polyester powder painting on both sides, providing exceptional corrosion protection and additional insulation. Additionally, the inside has been designed with a smooth lining that enhances material flow and ease of cleaning, guaranteeing an optimal storage.

The closed catwalks installed on the silos comply with UNE EN ISO 14122 standards, facilitating a safe and secure access for operators. In total, Symaga has supplied14 hopper silos: four of the SCEX1070/17T45 model, 29 meters high and 10 of the SCEX535/13T60 model, with a height of 21 meters, generating a total capacity of 11,705 cubic meters for the whole plant.

This project is the latest within a long history of collaboration between Symaga and Meura in the brewing industry. Previously, Symaga had supplied 20 hopper silos for Grupo Modelo in Apan, Mexico (2013), as well as two hopper silos for AB InBev in Salamina, Colombia, and other six in Port Elizabeth, South Africa (2022). Also, the Zambian Breweries have installed four hopper silos at their brewery in Lusaka.

With this new project in Barranquilla, Symaga strengthens its position among the leading manufacturers of advanced storage solutions for the brewing industry, ensuring the quality and care of malt, an essential ingredient in the beer production.
