2 Internationally in demand. Commitment from Brackenheim. With one of the most modern silo production facilities, Kurz is nationally and internationally a byword for maximum functionality and efficiency in the manufacture of silos and silo installations. With our flat management structure and a work climate characterised by mutual respect, we succeed in giving every one of our staff the freedom they need to contribute their own ideas to the success of our company. Due to the successful fusion of advanced technologies, cross-industry technical knowledge and decades of experience, we were able to develop, over the last few decades, into experts who are internationally in demand for the manufacture of silos and the engineering of complex silo installations. We are pleased that our business success provides us with the opportunity of fulfilling our social responsibility, for example with fund-raising initiatives. If you would like to know more about our social commitment and our company ethics, please contact us.

That s why we are happy to look in on you, answer your questions and analyse the local situation directly at the intended plant site, draw up a requirements plan or carry out a plant check-up. In this way we can develop solutions which meet your requirements efficiently. Whether new build, conversion, extension or support and maintenance we accept responsibility for the complete project handling and thus see to it that your plant becomes operational on schedule and runs reliably permanently.

That is why asphalt specialists rely on KURZ. _ Storage and stocking of filler and cement _ Storage and stocking of chippings and sand of various grain sizes _ Storage of bitumen _ Conveying of the bulk materials into the mixing plant _ Mobile silos up to 120 m³ _ Filler silos up to 40 m height and up to 320 m³ volume _ segmented for export of 13 m³ m³ _ Skirted silos up to m³ _ Pressure-shock resistant silos _ Discharge bunkers for aggregates _ Bitumen tanks

5 The daily experience of seeing that what we design with our computers works perfectly in reality that is what continues to motivate and inspire me. E n g i n e e r i n g & K n o w - h o w _Profiting. From engineering. We want to secure the long-term efficiency of our customers with our products and solutions. Therefore, we develop silo and plant concepts which match the individual requirements in every detail. On request, we also offer purely engineering services. You can expect the following benefits, amongst others, from Kurz: _ Plant planning with erection plans in 3D CAD for a clearer representation _ Detail design of containers, structural steel work and pipelines _ Drawing up of structural calculations for containers and structural steel work _ Design of pressure-shock resistant silos in accordance with the relevant regulations

6 Coal Dust. Powerful alternatives. At times of rising oil prices coal gains in importance. After all, energy can be obtained in a cost-efficient manner from pulverised coal. KURZ silo systems these are economic solutions which meet the strict ATEX safety standards and contribute to neither costs nor coal dust exploding. _ Storage and stocking of coal dust for combustion purposes _ Use in asphalt mixing plants, animal feed drying plants and cement kilns _ Discharge of coal dust for safe metering as per ATEX guidelines _ Factory-welded silos of 50 m³ m³ in accordance with the technical safety recommendations of Rheinbraun and Vattenfall Europe _ Factory-welded silos above 120 m³ with special requirements Power Stations. Extra power. And safety. Where energy is being produced, everyone responsible is under pressure to ensure the highest levels of operational safety and economy at all times. With our know-how we ensure that our customers can concentrate completely on their core business: to deliver top performance. _ Storage and stocking of, for example: ash, coal, slag, sewage sludge, wood chips, pellets, dust, lime, product mixtures _ Conveying of the bulk materials to the appropriate processing plant _ Loading into lorries, wagons and ships _ Safe discharge and metering of bulk materials by means of appropriate discharge equipment and design of silo geometry _ Metering of lime and similar products for flue gas cleaning or neutralisation _ Bunkers in rectangular design with cone or flat bottom Mortar, Plaster & Paint. Perfectly metered. Brilliant result. Dry storage, metering as required and dust-free conveying and loading these are things which we have perfectly under control with our silo systems. KURZ supplies silo systems with which you can safely store and meter mortars, plaster and paints, for example. _ Storage and stocking of raw materials _ Conveying of mortar, plaster and paints to appropriate processing plant _ Erection of silo batteries for the stocking of various products _ Loading of mortar, plaster and paints into lorries, wagons and ships _ Safe discharge and metering of bulk materials by means of appropriate discharge equipment and design of silo geometry _ Equipment which reduces the separation of expensive bulk materials _ segmented for export of 13 m³ m³ _ Mobile silos up to 120 m³

A collaborative approach is crucial for achieving superior outcomes. Therefore I like the fact that KURZ ysteme has flat hierarchies and that everyone is in the know about important developements.
