Case Study
Cheshire Farm
When a Cheshire dairy farm planned for herd expansion, the farmer knew milk storage and cooling would be crucial. Having worked successfully with Fabdec before, the farm was confident about where to turn. Their 20,000L Fabdec silo had served reliably for years, but with more cows coming, capacity was becoming a constraint. To keep pace with growth and avoid bottlenecks, the farmer sought a solution that met today’s needs while preparing for tomorrow.
The answer was a 40,000L Fabdec Hi-Kool silo. A major step up in size, yet one backed by proven design and performance. By doubling capacity, the farmer gained flexibility, ensuring milk could be collected, cooled, and stored efficiently as herd numbers rose. For a business focused on quality and efficiency, this was an investment in long-term stability.
The transition from old silo to new was seamless, thanks to Fabdec’s expertise. What impressed the farmer most wasn’t just extra storage, but the Hi-Kool’s performance. Cooling is now faster and more consistent, while full agitation keeps milk at optimum quality from entry to collection. These benefits go beyond convenience. They safeguard every litre produced.
For the Cheshire farm, the upgrade has already proved its worth. The Hi-Kool silo provides both capacity and quality today, while giving confidence that future expansion is fully supported. As a repeat customer, the farmer summed it up simply: Fabdec once again delivered the right solution at the right time.
Both the farmer and Fabdec are delighted with the outcome. The upgrade demonstrates how smart investment in advanced, sustainable technology can transform day-to-day operations while preparing the business for the future. The Hi-Kool silo not only supports the farm’s growth and financial objectives but also reflects a commitment to long-term efficiency and sustainability – a result that benefits both the producer and the wider industry.
