Solar Powered Grain Store
Rob Brown • June 15, 2023
Imagine being able to run your grain handling system, almost completely free of any energy costs. That’s exactly what this customer will be able to do, having just installed 418 solar panels to their new 25m wide grain store.

Teaming up once again with Teesdale Renewables, they have been able to install the panels using the edge protection and netting already in place for our team installing the roof, meaning a smooth transition of work and saving costs on the installation.
The building is the third one we have erected on this site, but the first to include the solar panels.

At S&A Fabrications, we’ve been building Roundhouses for years—mainly for livestock, feed storage, or agricultural machinery. But every now and then, a project comes along that takes us in a completely new direction. That’s exactly what happened when the team from Kynren approached us with an unusual brief: to create custom Roundhouses to house birds of prey for their upcoming live outdoor show.
S&A Fabrications were thrilled to attend the opening of Airbourne Colour’s cutting-edge hangar at Teesside International Airport. The grand event was attended by over 200 guests, including key business leaders and regional stakeholders, celebrating this significant achievement for both the aviation industry and the local economy.
In the realm of construction, ensuring the safety and security of structures is paramount. From residential buildings to commercial complexes, every edifice needs robust fire protection measures in place to safeguard lives and property. At S&A Fabrications, we take this responsibility seriously, constantly exploring innovative solutions to elevate construction standards. In our latest project - a farm shop - the application of intumescent paint to the internal steel structure marks a significant stride towards enhancing fire safety.
