The most modern and safe grain fumigation in the world

Dear grain market operators: grain storage and grain pest control industries!

What would you say if there was no longer a need to move grain when fumigating it in silos (upright) storage?
Now you can fumigate stationary grain with magnesium phosphides and aluminum phosphides; now you can deliver phosphide gases to any point, to any depth (height) of a silo filled with grain; unload phosphide fumigants into each layer of grain without moving the grain! Fumigation will become fast, convenient, quiet, safe, more environmentally friendly and elective (you can treat only the source of infestation (the exact spot) directly in the grain, in the silo)) and very economical!

Especially for you and the entire global grain industry, we have created an innovative (unparalleled in the world) the SGFOne automated robotic device – the world’s #One Self-immersing Grain Fumigator!

The SGFOne fumigation robot automatically plunges into the grain to a depth of up to 30 meters along a vertical, linear trajectory, independently delivers and unloads phosphides at a specified point in the grain or layer by layer, and returns to the top of the grain bin.

+ Grain fumigation with SGFOne is very cost-effective: there is no need to move or lower the grain level in the silo, and there is no need to use energy-intensive elevator equipment and personnel.
Savings in electricity and labor costs for the grain storage facility up to 100%
+ Fumigation is convenient and quiet: no dust or noise, the SGFOne device quietly plunges into the still grain in the bin and performs chemical fumigation.
+ Fast fumigation: the process is 10-15 times faster than the usual fumigation method.
+ Fumigation has become safer and more environmentally friendly: there is no longer a diffuse spread of phosphine gas beyond the grain bin – SGFOne delivers phosphides into the thickness of the grain. Phosphine gas no longer spreads outside the grain bin.
+ It is now possible to selectively fumigate any grain bin in a reinforced concrete silo building without blocking the operation of the entire grain storage facility.
+ Fumigate electively only one point in the grain, at any depth (height) of the silo,it is possible to fumigate only the source of infested stationary grain in the grain bin.
+ The SGFOne device itself is also highly energy efficient: the self-immersing grain fumigator consumes only 0.5 kW of electricity per hour and can operate autonomously, without the need for energy from the grain storage facility, using solar power (the SGFOne is equipped with an external autonomous solar power station). The cost of fumigation has been reduced by 30%.
+ The SGFOne automatically stirs the grain and can also aerate the stationary grain in the silo bunker.
– There is a hitch though. To use the “grain fumigation technology at specified coordinates (SGFOne)”, it is necessary to purchase expensive equipment (self-immersing SGFOne grain fumigators) and an SGFOne Franchise. The payback period of this technology is rather quick. There is also a possibility to hire an outsourced pest control company with an SGFOne Franchise in your country (The cost of SGFOne fumigation services will be 25%-30% lower even when outsourcing).

The innovative SGFOne robotic device has been in development for several years, and the ideal technical solution has now been achieved, with the device’s basic operating concept approved by the developer. The grant funding is expected to support the development of technical documentation for small-scale production and testing.
As early as 2026, we will introduce the world’s first automated and robotic self-immersing grain fumigator, the “SGFOne.” SGFOne devices are expected to be available for international sale under a franchise model as early as the end of 2026, when the Northern Hemisphere grain storage and fumigation season begins.
The photo on the left shows the final sketch of the device. In the lab, engineers call the device “Weevil” after the most dangerous pest of grain crops, the granary weevil (Sitophilus granarius), due to the device’s elongated body and its resemblance to this pest. Perhaps the SGFOne Weevil will become the name of this model 🙂

In the 2026-2027 grain storage season, we (through accredited Franchisors) plan to fumigate over 1 million tons of grain in silos (vertical) grain storage around the world and sell over 100 SGFOne self-immersing grain fumigators worldwide.
In this timeframe (2026), the global grain industry could save an average of over 200 megawatts of electricity and over 10,000 hours of production time and man-hours on chemical grain fumigation by using SGFOne.
In 2027 – twice as much.
