Laidig's foundation is over 60 years strong, and the road that got us to where we are today was paved by a single idea.
How It Started
When Jon Laidig built his first bottom reclaimer in 1961, the agriculture industry was searching for a more reliable and rugged reclaim system for silage. Jon’s interest and ability in engineering, coupled with his strong commitment and relentless drive to develop a high-quality, cost-effective reclaimer, soon resulted in the realization of an innovative, efficient reclaim system. With that initial success, Jon founded Laidig, Inc. in 1964.
How We've Grown
Over six decades later, under the leadership of Jon's son, Wyn—and now grandson, Daniel—that pioneering formula of innovation, quality, commitment and relentless drive continues to produce growth and success. Laidig is now earmarked as the industry leader for bulk storage and reclaim systems, specializing in screw-type bottom reclaimers in silos, domes, and open piles of material.
Known for our high-quality, rugged systems, Laidig provides customized solutions for the storage and reclaim of materials with poor material flow characteristics or other special handling requirements. Both domestically and internationally, Laidig creates solutions for problems that other companies are unable or unwilling to solve.
If we design, build, and install your storage and reclaim system, we guarantee it will work.
