The specialists have installed the chain and belt conveyers produced by Cimbria Unigrain A/S
(Denmark), the peeling augers produced by Morillon (France), as well as a modern aspiration system with airways and dust cleaning equipment. At present the company’s specialists have started commissioning work; they are currently testing equipment. At the same time, the territory is almost arranged, in particular the workers have renewed the concrete pavements. NIBULON’s long-standing and reliable partner, an individual entrepreneur from Mykolaiv, Kondratiuk V.S., was appointed the general contractor. More than 100 people were involved in the construction, whilst meeting all the state quarantine requirements.“Having increased the transshipment terminal capacity, the company created additional conditions to develop the agrarian sector in the region and to improve NIBULON’s environmental and logistics activities. This will enable the company to extend its cooperation with new grain product suppliers. All the grain received by Holoprystanska transshipment terminal is shipped and delivered to the company’s sea terminal in Mykolaiv or directly to the outer roads by water transport. NIBULON's more efficient river terminal will enable the company to increase the volume of agricultural commodity received and remove about 12.5 thousand trucks from the highways annually”, tells Mykola Miagchenko, the Holoprystanska branch director. Considering that the company’s transshipment terminals and silos are in great demand by agricultural commodity producers, at the beginning of 2020 NIBULON increased the production capacity at Voznesenska branch in Mykolaiv region. The total silo capacity is about 98 thousand tons at the facility. NIBULON’s total grain storage capacity is more than 2.2 million tons.
