What is down there

  • Burial by grain

    Flowing or bridged grain swallows whoever stands on it, with no time to react.

  • Toxic atmosphere

    Gases and oxygen deficiency, often odorless and without any warning.

  • Fall from height

    Ladders, walkways and silo hatches require a harness and lanyard at every access.

  • Explosive dust

    Airborne grain dust can explode: Palotina, Paraná, 2023, 10 workers killed.

More than 90% of these accidents could have been avoided by following the regulations.

Vigiles makes sure they are followed, at every entry.
