Zill Silo Protection Covers (Protection Nets) are among the best in the world. One important reason is Zill’s commitment to using exceptionally strong yarns and pushing weaving technology to its limits.
This is especially evident in the zilltex 300®. By combining extremely strong, virgin HDPE monofilament yarns with a very dense and precise weave, Zill has created a Silo Protection Cover with outstanding tear resistance, abrasion resistance and long service life.
Compared to conventional PP yarns, HDPE monofilaments offer significant advantages. They are more resistant to UV radiation, perform better in both hot and cold temperatures, and are less likely to become brittle over time. Their excellent UV stability helps maintain the mechanical strength of the yarns for many years.
The thicker the individual filament, the higher the strength of each yarn, the better the stability within the woven structure, and the greater the resistance to concentrated stress, such as heavy bird pecking or foot traffic.
The result is a highly durable and reliable Silo Protection Cover (Protection Net) for farmers who demand maximum silage quality and long-term operational safety.
For decades, Zill Silo Protection Covers and Protection Nets have been trusted by farmers around the world to protect valuable silage and ensure reliable forage quality season after season.
