Lafarge Cement Plant — Located in Ontario, Canada, Lafarge’s storage dome can hold 40,000 tons.
All manner of products, goods or items can be safely maintained in a Monolithic Dome bulk storage: grains, fruits, vegetables, meats, coal, fertilizer, pesticides, frac sand etc.
We can help you design a storage unit or units specifically fitting your needs. Generally, such a facility can be constructed and operated more affordably than other types of structures, similarly sized and equipped.
When it comes to state-of-the-art equipment for moving, loading and unloading stored goods, we know what works the best and is affordable. We also know how to equip a storage dome with air conditioning and a programmable, worry-free thermostat system that can economically maintain the necessary temperature — whether that’s cool, cold or freezing.
Monolithic Domes are strong, durable and safe. They can survive tornadoes, hurricanes and earthquakes. Their concrete shells cannot burn, be eaten by termites or rot.
A Monolithic bulk storage facility involves cutting-edge technology in the design and construction of the structure and in the components used to move, load and unload the stored goods. Follow this link to information about the newest and best developments in this industry. (Continued…)
Dome Technology is an Idaho-based construction company that has been in the business of building thin shell Monolithic Domes for 28 years. Owner Barry South with his brothers David and Randy joint ventured the patented dome construction process. They have constructed more than 430 individual domes to date. They have also built domes in nearly every state and about 20 foreign countries. Dome technology builds commercial, industrial, residential complexes and many other types of domes. (Continued…)
Don’t be surprised if you’ve never heard of Estonia. It’s a small, Eastern European country, floating in the Baltic Sea between Latvia and Finland, that, after the 1991 fall of Communism, reorganized itself into a parliamentary democracy and a growing economy. Not many of us knew that – including some of the folks at Dome Technology, Inc. of Idaho Falls, Idaho. (Continued…)
El Dorado Chemical Company now has two new Monolithic Domes. The smaller dome, that has a 40-foot diameter, will warehouse various bagged chemicals. The larger dome has a 95-foot diameter, eight storage bins and state-of-the-art equipment for the blending of various fertilizers. A giant, metal, patio cover connects the two. (Continued…)
A Monolithic Dome makes an ideal fertilizer blend plant that mixes, packages, stores and distributes specialty chemicals for various agricultural purposes. These domes contain many large bins used to store phosphorus, potash and nitrogen in various forms, as well as other micronutrients such as iron, chrome or zinc. From these ingredients, hundreds of different fertilizer formulas can be created. (Continued…)
Monolithic Dome bulk storages have been constructed around the world to store chemicals, fertilizers, cement, sand, salt, feed, grains, aggregates, carbon, chips, seeds, peanuts, coke, blasting powder – and the list goes on. (Continued…)
Gary Madson, General Manager of Cement Operations for Lone Star Northwest, Inc., described their Monolithic Dome cement storage facility as, “a highly visible symbol for our company right in the heart of Portland.” (Continued…)
Since the fiercest hurricane on record to hit the U.S. blasted the Texas coast in 1900, Equalizer’s location certainly is in a hurricane zone. That hurricane-proneness was one of the main reasons Equalizer decided on Monolithic Domes for the storage of their two products: ammonium nitrate and diammonium phosphate. (Continued…)
Monolithic Domes make the best salt storages. They are solid concrete on the inside. Concrete handles salt damage far better than just about any other building material. (Continued…)
“The higher you go, the more susceptible a building is to hurricane or tornado damage,” said David South, president of Monolithic, at a discussion of the latest in warehouses, distribution centers and storage facilities. “That’s why the Monolithic Dome makes an ideal automated warehouse,” he added. (Continued…)
Your dollar buys more when you invest in a Monolithic Dome bulk storage facility. Not only can you get exactly what you need for less, but you can get it designed and built by experienced, reliable and reputable professionals. (Continued…)
Adaptability and affordability are key words when you’re talking about Monolithic Domes built as cold storage facilities. “It’s a matter of you tell us what you want and need, and we will help you design and build it,” said Monolithic’s President David B. South. “We can do a cold storage dome of just about any size — small ones with diameters of 75 feet or less, giant ones with diameters of 200+ feet, or anything in between.” (Continued…)
Monolithic Oil Tanks now are more competitive than ever. They are constructed of concrete, not steel. Consequently, the much higher price of steel and the use of high-strength, post tension cables now allow Monolithic Tanks to be less costly. (Continued…)
