  1. 

INTRODUCTION 

 

 

The GrainPro® GrainSafe Bag

TM

 - 1.0 is a portable bagged storage for grain and seed, normally 

set-up at ground levels such as on concrete pavement or on a pallet. The  use of  a platform is 
also  an  option.  It  safely  stores  any  dry  agricultural  commodities  like  maize,  wheat,  paddy, 
coffee,  and  others  at  or  below  safe  moisture  content.  It  works  under  the  principle  of 
hermeticity (airtight). It is made from a specially designed food grade, Ultra- Hermetic material, 

and  zipper  system.  Insects’  natural  breathing  process  depletes  the

  available  oxygen  and 

replaces it with carbon dioxide. This conversion typically occurs within 10 days of storage. The 
heavier  the  infestation,  the  more  rapid  is  the  kill.  The  liner of  the  GrainSafe  Bag

TM

  is  a  UV-

resistant,  waterproof,  low permeability  and  is  resistant  to  rodent  penetration  when  properly 
installed.
