Silage Tubes

The unique memory of the stretch film means that the tube can be stretched and still return to its original form. Bales are pushed into the tube and the stretch is released to form tightly around the bale, creating an oxygen free environment ideal for maintaining feed quality.

Gases created during the fermentation process can cause excessive stress on the Lastic® Tube. When this occurs, venting is necessary. We recommend the use of Donaghys Silage Tape when resealing the vented tube.

Tough and dependable
UV stabilised
Each tube is packed and folded individually into a carton

Silage Bags

Silage Bags are an economical alternative to preserve silage, as feed losses are minimal compared to silage pit and wrapper options. The silage is contained in an anaerobic environment that helps to eliminate spoilage whilst maintaining essential proteins and nutrients.

Tough and dependable with high tear and puncture resistance properties
UV stabilised
Available in 9ft x 200ft and 9ft x 300ft
Each bag is packed and folded individually into a carton
