Antti Marine

Sustainable products and solutions

We emp­ha­si­se the deve­lop­ment of tech­no­lo­gy-dri­ven solu­tions that are reliable and efficient in all con­di­tions. We con­ti­nual­ly test and impro­ve our auto­ma­tion sys­tems, dryers, silos, and other pro­ducts to ensu­re opti­mal per­for­mance. By offe­ring reliable and long-las­ting solu­tions, we aim to reduce was­te and cont­ri­bu­te to the sus­tai­nable use of resources in the grain proces­sing industry.

More with less — inves­ting in a sus­tai­nable futu­re

Antti’s invest­ment in a new pro­fi­ling mac­hi­ne for manu­fac­tu­ring silos enhances mate­rial uti­liza­tion, enables pro­duc­tion of lar­ger silos and reduces car­bon dioxi­de emis­sions throug­hout their lifes­pan.

Also the new ext­ra-har­de­ned steel mate­rial used in our silo manu­fac­tu­ring reduces the rate of mate­rial con­sump­tion rela­ti­ve to the size of the silo, resul­ting in cost savings and inc­rea­sed efficiency.

For the new pro­fi­ling mac­hi­ne Ant­ti-Teol­li­suus has been gran­ted fun­ding from the Euro­pean Regio­nal Deve­lop­ment Fund of the Euro­pean Union’s Struc­tu­ral Funds pro­gram­me for Sus­tai­nable Growth and Jobs 2014–2020 in Fin­land.

Tran­si­tio­ning to fos­sil-free grain drying

We are com­mit­ted to envi­ron­men­tal sus­tai­na­bi­li­ty and the reduc­tion of green­house gas emis­sions. We ack­now­led­ge the impor­tance of tran­si­tio­ning to more sus­tai­nable ener­gy sources.

In line with this com­mit­ment, we have announced that our dryers and hea­ters will be HVO (Hydro-trea­ted Vege­table Oil) com­pa­tible from the begin­ning of 2022. This tran­si­tion to renewable fuel oil aligns with our dedica­tion to fos­te­ring a fos­sil-free era in grain drying.

Bio­hea­ters — use fuel from your own land

For­get the oil bill, use bio­fuel. Bio­hea­ters heat and dry effec­ti­ve­ly. The efficiency of the heat exc­han­ger is excel­lent. The bio­hea­ters burn wood chips, peat, pel­lets or briquet­tes, for example. It helps save up to 70 % of ener­gy costs.

Grain silos desig­ned for chal­len­ging con­di­tions

In Fin­land far­mers face chal­len­ging con­di­tions, such as a cold cli­ma­te and frequent chan­ges in weat­her and tem­pe­ra­tu­re. The­se con­di­tions gene­ra­te speci­fic requi­re­ments for grain silos.

With this know­led­ge in mind, we design and manu­fac­tu­re grain silos that are stur­dy, durable, and requi­re mini­mal main­te­nance. Our silos are made from high-qua­li­ty mate­rials and are built to withs­tand the hars­hest con­di­tions. They are also desig­ned to be easy to clean and main­tain, so that far­mers can focus on their crops. By pro­vi­ding high-qua­li­ty grain silos, we ensu­re the lon­ge­vi­ty of our pro­ducts, reducing the need for frequent replace­ments and mini­mizing was­te.

Opti­mizing cont­rol sys­tems for smal­ler farms

Recog­nizing the diver­se needs of far­mers, we have recent­ly upda­ted the cont­rol sys­tem of our dryers. The new Opti­ma 2.0 sys­tem offers enhanced auto­ma­tion and the option for remo­te cont­rol, speci­fical­ly tai­lo­red to smal­ler farms.

By pro­vi­ding this user-friend­ly and affor­dable solu­tion, we enable smal­ler-sca­le far­mers to opti­mize their grain drying proces­ses and reduce ener­gy con­sump­tion, the­re­by fos­te­ring sus­tai­na­bi­li­ty at a grass­roots level.

Envi­ron­men­tal bene­fits of dust mana­ge­ment

Ant­ti’s dust mana­ge­ment pro­ducts for dryers are bene­ficial for both far­mers and the envi­ron­ment. By reducing the amount of dust ente­ring the air and mac­hi­nes, the sys­tem helps to impro­ve the air and envi­ron­men­tal qua­li­ty. With clea­ner, less dus­ty air, the dryer and the sur­roun­ding area are safer, which also reduces the risk of acci­dents.

Furt­her­mo­re, dust mana­ge­ment reduces ener­gy con­sump­tion and inc­rea­ses the ser­vice life of dryer actua­tors which in turn cont­ri­bu­tes to con­ser­va­tion of resources.

The­re­fo­re, using Ant­ti’s dust mana­ge­ment solu­tion yields envi­ron­men­tal bene­fits in addi­tion to eco­no­mic bene­fits.

Opti­mizing ener­gy efficiency of grain drying

With frequency con­ver­ters, Antti’s cont­rol sys­tem allows the auto­ma­tic cont­rol of the speed of the grain drying process, adjus­ting it based on fac­tors like humi­di­ty and tem­pe­ra­tu­re. By opti­mizing the drying process with the frequency con­ver­ter, far­mers can reduce unneces­sa­ry ener­gy con­sump­tion and save costs. This tech­no­lo­gy not only helps far­mers be more efficient in their grain drying ope­ra­tions but also cont­ri­bu­tes to ove­rall ener­gy con­ser­va­tion and sus­tai­na­bi­li­ty in the agricul­tu­ral sec­tor.
