An efficiently flowing hopper or bin is crucial to the flow of bulk materials throughout your plant. It is one of the most important components of any bulk material handling system.
Efficient storage and controlled discharge of bulk materials starts with well designed bins and hoppers. At BID Canada Ltd., we specialize in custom fabricated steel bins and hoppers engineered to improve material flow, reduce downtime, and integrate seamlessly into your bulk handling system.
