The north america silo bags market is projected to grow from USD 52.0 billion in 2025 to USD 84.8 billion by 2035, at a CAGR of 5.0%. 60 Meters will dominate with a 47.6% market share, while up to 200 metric ton will lead the capacity segment with a 54.2% share.
Published 18 September 2025

The North America Silo Bags Market is gearing up for strong expansion, driven by the growing need for flexible and cost-efficient grain storage solutions. Valued at USD 52.0 billion in 2025, the market is projected to hit USD 84.8 billion by 2035, registering a steady CAGR of 5.0% during the forecast period.

This growth trajectory underscores the region’s heightened focus on securing agricultural yields, reducing post-harvest losses, and adopting sustainable solutions amid fluctuating global supply chains.

Why Silo Bags are Winning Ground in North America

Farmers across the United States and Canada are increasingly turning to silo bags for their practicality, affordability, and protective performance. Unlike permanent storage infrastructure, silo bags offer immediate, on-farm storage capacity that helps preserve grain quality while reducing spoilage risks.

Polyethylene-based silo bags are emerging as the material of choice thanks to their durability, UV resistance, and ability to protect crops from pests and moisture. Advances in multilayer film technology and sealing methods have further improved the efficiency of silo bag systems, making them an indispensable tool in modern agriculture.

The pandemic years of 2023–2024 briefly slowed production due to supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. However, as restrictions eased, silo bag adoption surged, highlighting the resilience and adaptability of the agricultural industry in North America.

Market Segments Driving Growth

60-Meter Length Bags Lead the Market

By 2025, the 60-meter length segment is expected to account for 47.6% of market revenue. These bags provide the perfect balance of storage capacity and ease of handling, making them the preferred choice for medium to large-scale farms. Their adaptability across crop types further reinforces their leadership.

Up to 200 Metric Ton Capacity in High Demand

Silo bags with capacities of up to 200 metric tons are set to capture 54.2% of the market share in 2025. Their practicality for medium-scale farms and cooperatives, coupled with compatibility with standard farm equipment, has made them the go-to choice for efficient storage.

Polyethylene Bags Dominate Material Choice

Polyethylene (PE) silo bags will command 49.8% of market revenue by 2025. Farmers prefer PE bags due to their resilience, cost-effectiveness, and recyclability. This segment also aligns with rising sustainability goals across North America.

Grain Storage Holds the Baton

Within applications, grain storage remains the dominant segment, accounting for 66.7% of market share in 2025. With the U.S. and Canada producing vast quantities of grains and oilseeds, the demand for safe, scalable, and cost-effective storage solutions continues to rise.

Country-Level Insights: United States vs. Canada

The United States accounts for a commanding 83.5% share of the North America silo bags market in 2025. With agriculture contributing 5.2% of GDP, silo bags are being embraced as a strategic tool to safeguard the nation’s grain supply. The strong growth of organic farming has further accelerated innovation, with U.S. manufacturers now investing in eco-friendly and biodegradable silo bag solutions to meet federal sustainability regulations.

Meanwhile, Canada, though smaller in market size, presents significant growth potential with a projected CAGR of 5.4% between 2025 and 2035, surpassing that of the U.S. With grain and oilseed production topping 90 million tons in 2024, Canadian farms are increasingly relying on silo bags to store bumper harvests. This positions the country as a fertile ground for silo bag manufacturers seeking expansion opportunities.

Established Players Setting Benchmarks

Leading manufacturers are stepping up investments to enhance their production capabilities and sustainability portfolios.

  • RKW Hyplast NV has been particularly proactive, installing a multilayer extrusion line in 2020 to expand its silo bag production. In 2024, the company committed a seven-figure investment to boost production of recycled-content films at its Germany facility. Its Polydress FarmGuard, a seven-layer silage barrier film, is setting new standards in eco-friendly agricultural storage.
  • IPESA - Rio Chico S.A., BagMan LLC, and Canadian Tarpaulin Manufacturers Ltd. continue to dominate the North American landscape with extensive product offerings tailored to regional farm requirements.
  • Tried-and-tested brands like Blue Lake Plastics, Grain Pro, and GEM Silage Products are prioritizing strong farmer partnerships, ensuring not just product supply but also after-sales support and storage consultation.

New Entrants Driving Innovation

While established names maintain dominance, new players are steadily gaining ground by focusing on sustainability and innovation.

For instance, emerging Canadian players are investing in bio-based silo bags to meet the rising demand for eco-friendly solutions. These firms are also leveraging digital marketing and online promotion strategies to enhance brand visibility, connecting directly with tech-savvy farmers across North America.

Start-ups are also experimenting with smart silo bags, embedding sensors to monitor grain temperature and moisture levels in real time. Such innovations promise to transform silo bag usage from simple storage to a critical part of precision agriculture.

  • Global Expansion: With governments in developing countries reducing trade taxes and encouraging agro-industrial investment, North American manufacturers could expand their presence beyond the region, capturing new growth markets.

Looking Forward

As the North America Silo Bags Market marches toward USD 84.8 billion by 2035, the outlook is decidedly positive. From long-standing industry giants like RKW Hyplast and IPESA to emerging innovators experimenting with biodegradable materials and digital monitoring, the ecosystem is vibrant and evolving.

For farmers, silo bags represent more than just storage—they are a pathway to resilience, sustainability, and efficiency. For manufacturers, the decade ahead is a chance to scale businesses, pioneer eco-friendly innovations, and play a pivotal role in shaping the future of agricultural storage in North America.
