AgriDome: Shelter Livestock From The Elements

Need a big covered area where animals or machinery can move freely without being hampered by pillars or posts? Introducing the AgriDome - a PVC covered Dome Shelter that provides unencumbered undercover space to protect your assets against weather conditions.

Aquasteel (Pty) Ltd t/a Aquadam was established in 1992 and has a long and established history in water storage solutions. The company was built on the core value of integrity – Product, Process and People.

Aquadam has installed more than 9,000 tanks worldwide from our range of tremendous products, being the SmartTank Extreme, HomeTank, FireTank, RhinoTank and now - the Agridome.

The AgriDome is used with great success in the agricultural sector to shelter livestock from the elements. Expensive farming machinery and equipment can also be kept under cover and out of the elements. The AgriDome gives you the finest materials available with a solid design. Every detail you desire is carefully crafted and every option you select is seamlessly added, all to exceptional standards to create a customized, pre-engineered structure that is uniquely yours.

The AgriDome has multiple width options:

The smallest size have a width (or span) of 6m, increasing up to 30m span. (The height of the dome will also increase with the width.) The standard length options are 6m and 12m sections, but longer structures can be formed by joining multiple sections together in tandem. More than one structure can also be placed adjacent to each other (in parallel) by sharing the same mounting point. Customization to each individual client’s specific need is therefore a strong point.

The AgriDome is a taught structure, pleasing on the eye and does not look like a circus tent flapping in the wind. It can be mounted on gum poles, concrete walls or on shipping containers to create a space where workers and equipment can be kept safe from the elements.

The frame is hot dip galvanised, rolled 3.2mm gauge structural steel (Q235) – giving the ability to span up to 30m in width, without the need for heavy box tubing.

We are "The Heavy Weights" in the industry which is why we only use industry leading, fire retardant, translucent Rip Stop PVC that is UV stabilized, meaning it will last longer under our harsh sunlight conditions. It can handle gusts of wind including storms and hail. When comparing PVC to Poly Ethylene (PE) one finds that PVC covers have more than twice the tensile strength of PE covers, and it stretches far less, so there is no sagging that can cause water pooling. It lasts longer than PE when continually exposed to harsh weather conditions and is definitely the best cover in the industry!

You can ask for custom sizes and configurations to adapt die AgriDome to your unique requirements. The possibilities are endless and suitable to most needs. Let your imagination run wild!

Rand for rand you will not get a more cost effective cover for big spaces not hampered by pillars or posts. It just makes economic sense!
