DURUM WHEAT STORAGE AT BARILLA IN PARMA At the turn of the year Cimbria Heid Italia designed and built a new storage facility for durum wheat at Barilla Spa, a world leader in the production of pasta. The new storage plant represents key logistical support for the economic and productive development of Barilla and it was decided to build it in Parma at the headquarters of the Italian giant. Cimbria supplied – on a turnkey basis – the reception from trucks and trains and the conveying of the durum wheat that Barilla collects from all over the world and processes in its mills in Parma for the production of semolina and by-products.
