In the world of modern food preservation and processing, few names embody the standards of quality, precision, and hygiene quite like Sansone Inox. Known globally for its mastery in stainless-steel engineering, Sansone continues to lead the industry in food-grade containment technology. Among its most sought-after innovations are its stainless steel silos, designed to meet the demanding needs of producers who value product purity, easy maintenance, and long-term durability.
Now available in Australia through The Olive Centre, Sansone’s Heavy-Duty Silos with Conical Base and Easy Discharge and the Variable Capacity Silos (Sempre Pieno) represent the highest standard in food-safe stainless storage. Built entirely from AISI 304–316L stainless steel, these silos are purpose-built to safeguard liquids like olive oil, wine, honey, vinegar, and other food-grade materials while maintaining their integrity over time.
Each Sansone silo tank is manufactured in Italy under the company’s ISO 9001:2000 quality control standards. The design focus is simple but delivers absolute cleanliness and complete drainage.
The conical base ensures total discharge of stored contents, preventing residues and eliminating the risk of contamination. Smooth, mirror-polished interiors allow effortless cleaning, while “Polished” or “marble” external finishes offer durability and aesthetic refinement.
Sansone silo tanks are particularly suited for olive oil mills, cooperatives, and cellar doors, where the highest level of product protection is required. The elliptical or round inspection door, double-valve nitrogen system (for fixed capacity type), and stainless steel sampling tap provide users with complete control of the stored product from top to bottom.
Sansone’s Storage Silos with Conical Base and Easy Discharge are designed for fixed installations that demand both hygiene and efficiency. Built from AISI 304 - 316L stainless steel, these silos are ideal for the hygienic storage of liquid foods in environments where contamination-free handling is critical. Each model features a fully welded conical base that ensures total emptying of the tank and minimises product in contact with sediment. The upper cover includes a nitrogen inlet valve, allowing an inert atmosphere for long-term storage without oxidation - especially valuable for olive oil.
The silos are fitted with elliptical front doors, sight gauges, and total/partial discharge valves, making maintenance and inspection straightforward. Every unit rests on reinforced stainless steel legs for stability, ensuring long-lasting service under continuous use.

Technical specifications sourced from Sansone Stainless Steel Silos documentation. Conical-base silos ensure total drainage and contamination-free storage for food-grade liquids.
These models are ideal for food processing, laboratory, and industrial settings. The seamless conical design ensures total evacuation of liquids while maintaining a contamination-free environment. Each silo undergoes rigorous testing to meet the most demanding quality standards, including leak-proof inspections and pressure-resistance validation.
Optional features include:
For producers who need flexible capacity management, Sansone’s Fixed Capacity Silos - also known as Silos Sempre Pieno - provide a reliable “always full” system that prevents oxidation and product spoilage.
Each tank features a floating stainless-steel lid that adjusts to the liquid level, ensuring no air is trapped between the product and cover. Combined with a conical base, the design facilitates total discharge and makes cleaning fast and efficient.
Manufactured from AISI 304 stainless steel, these silos are the benchmark for wineries and olive mills where maintaining product quality is crucial during storage or decanting. Optional accessories include a level indicator rod, floating arm, and adjustable support legs to guarantee perfect levelling.
