Engineered for Efficient Material Movement and Storage

Efficient material handling is at the heart of every successful production process. IAC designs and delivers fully integrated bulk material handling and storage systems that keep plants running safely, smoothly, and with maximum uptime. From mechanical conveyors and pneumatic transport to silos, domes, and automated loadout systems, every solution is engineered for precise performance and long-term reliability.

As both an OEM and EPC contractor, IAC provides complete systems that move, store, and protect dry bulk materials under demanding industrial conditions. Our in-house engineering, fabrication, and construction teams manage every step of the process, ensuring consistent quality and seamless integration from design through installation. The result is a system tailored to your specific materials, throughput goals, and site requirements—built to operate efficiently and compliantly for years to come.

Complete Bulk Material Handling Systems

IAC designs and fabricates complete bulk material handling systems that provide efficient, dust-free movement of dry materials across production and storage operations. Each system is built for performance, safety, and long-term reliability.

Mechanical Conveying Equipment:

  • Belt conveyors for continuous, high-capacity transfer
  • Screw conveyors for enclosed, controlled material movement
  • Bucket elevators for vertical conveying of bulk solids
  • Airslides for energy-efficient horizontal transport
  • Feeders, crushers, and screeners for process integration

Pneumatic Conveying Systems:

  • Dilute phase conveying for lightweight or non-abrasive materials
  • Dense and semi-dense phase systems for heavier or abrasive materials
  • Pressure or vacuum configurations for flexible plant layouts
  • Blower packages, piping, and valves engineered for precise flow control
  • Filter receivers, weighing, and batching systems for accurate delivery

All systems are designed to meet NFPA and OSHA safety standards and can be fully integrated with IAC’s storage silos, loadout systems, and Smart Plant automated controls. Whether upgrading a single line or building a new facility, IAC delivers turnkey systems optimized for productivity and uptime.

Engineered Bulk Storage and Loadout Solutions

IAC designs and constructs complete bulk storage and loadout systems that safely contain, protect, and transfer dry materials across a wide range of industrial applications. Each system is engineered for efficient operation, structural integrity, and compliance with material handling standards.

Our solutions include:

  • Bolted or welded silos sized for any material volume or plant layout
  • Dome storage structures for high-capacity or weather-sensitive materials
  • Tanks, bins, and hoppers for intermediate or specialty storage needs
  • Automated truck and rail loadout systems for fast, accurate product transfer
  • Integrated weighing, scaling, and flow control systems
  • Field-erected foundations and structural supports

All construction and installation work is performed by Adelphi Construction, IAC’s wholly owned subsidiary specializing in heavy industrial projects. By combining in-house design, fabrication, and self-perform construction, IAC delivers cohesive, fast-track installations with single-source accountability. Each system is built for long service life and smooth integration with conveying, processing, and automated control equipment.

Safety, Compliance, and Standards-Driven Design

Every IAC material handling and storage system is designed with safety and regulatory compliance as fundamental priorities. Our engineers apply industry standards from organizations such as OSHA, MSHA, and NFPA to ensure that each system operates reliably and minimizes risk to personnel and equipment.

Safety is built into every phase of design and construction. This includes explosion venting and suppression systems, proper grounding and bonding for dust control, and access platforms that promote safe maintenance practices. For combustible dust environments, IAC systems follow NFPA 652 and 664 guidelines to reduce ignition sources and manage dust hazards effectively.

IAC’s quality control processes extend through fabrication, installation, and commissioning to confirm that each component performs as intended in real-world conditions. By integrating compliance into design—not as an afterthought but as a core principle—IAC helps customers maintain safe, efficient, and fully compliant operations across their facilities.

Integrated EPC and Fabrication Expertise

IAC provides fully integrated engineering, procurement, and construction capabilities for bulk material handling and storage projects. Our in-house engineering teams design each system for performance, efficiency, and maintainability, while our fabrication facilities produce high-quality components including conveyors, silos, ductwork, and structural steel.

Adelphi Construction, IAC’s field construction subsidiary, completes the process with skilled mechanical, electrical, and civil crews experienced in complex industrial installations. This integration shortens project timelines, improves communication, and ensures accountability from design through commissioning.

Whether supporting a greenfield plant, an expansion, or a retrofit, IAC’s EPC approach reduces risk and streamlines execution. Customers gain a single, trusted partner to handle every phase of the project, resulting in faster delivery, consistent quality, and systems built to perform under demanding industrial conditions.

Lifecycle Support and Services

IAC provides complete lifecycle support to keep bulk material handling and storage systems operating at peak performance. Our dedicated field teams deliver scheduled maintenance, inspections, and emergency repair services across North America, supported by extensive parts inventory and technical expertise.

The IAC field service crews offer responsive on-site support for all system components, including conveyors, silos, and loadout equipment. Services include equipment troubleshooting, performance audits, rebuilds, and modernization programs designed to extend system life and reduce operating costs.

With over 55,000 replacement parts available for immediate shipment and 24/7 emergency response, IAC helps minimize downtime and protect productivity. Each service program is tailored to site conditions and production goals, ensuring long-term reliability and safety across the full lifecycle of your equipment.
