Specialising in Silage Pits, Farm Roads, Yards


SDM Asphalt is the ultimate solution for the farming industry and is much longer lasting than the concrete alternative due to its impermeable acid defence and durability.

Making it the ideal surfacing solution for Silage Pits and bulk animal feed storage areas as well as being suitable for farm tracks, farm yards and access roads.

The surface is easily cleaned and is less abrasive on amimal hooves.
Areas housing livestock require an insulated, impermeable surface in order to provide a clean and pleasant environment for farm animals that are non-abrasive to animal’s feet and resistant to urine, which SDM Asphalt is.

Why do we recommend asphalt for silage clamp bases?

Asphalt can be laid by a paver and silage stored on the surface relatively quickly (subject to manufacturer advice) this could be within 72 hours. Concrete bases require longer curing – up to six weeks before they can be used to store silage.

Asphalt does not have vulnerable expansion joints that in a concrete base quickly become a trap for silage clamp leachate. In our experience, the expansion joint is the most likely part of a clamp to leak with a traditional concrete base. This is especially true at the joint between the base of the panel and the wall.

You can replace asphalt after many years of use by stripping and re-laying the top surface. This will only take as long as standard asphalt laying time (i.e 72 hours to cure).

We pride ourselves on customer service and satisfaction, listening to your requirements and collaborating with you to determine the best approach. Once agreed, we measure the area in question, taking all factors into account, including required groundworks, blocks, kerbing, drainage, ducting, levels & falls. We only use high quality materials.

We then supply you with a fully-itemised, personalised quote, which we explain in detail.
