Springland Manufacturing

Springland Manufacturing was founded in 1985 by brothers Henry, John, and Herman Lepp on the family farm north of Rivers, Manitoba, Canada. They aimed to build a mechanical grain bin cleaner that had greater efficiency, was safer, and more simple to use than what was on the market at the time. The first systems sold were round-tube unloaders for bins up to 48 feet in diameter. Then, the Springland U-Trough design was developed in 1998 in response to the need for faster emptying of larger grain bins with less product damage. The durability and advantages of the U-Trough Unloader proved themselves and, now marketed world-wide, has all but replaced the round-tube style.
