Nordic farrowing hut

This brand-new farrowing hut is designed to create the best possible conditions for both pigs and workers. We have received the first demo model, which can be seen in the pictures. We expect the final design updates to be completed in 2024. There will be an option for a rear door, making it compliant with shading requirements. The hut will also feature a quick-closing radial door, ensuring safe, fast, and efficient closure of the hut. Everyone is, of course, welcome to come and see the model.

Iglo farrowing hut

An innovative design of the farrowing hut, with its completely unique round shape, offers an excellent indoor environment for the sow and piglets. The hut design, with its round shape, is created to minimize the risk of piglets getting laid on, and the automatic ventilation hatch provides optimal conditions for the animals.

Weaner/drysow/Gilt hut

The large and spacious weaner hut offers many uses. With double-layer plastic, a large, spacious opening, and the option to keep both ends open, the hut creates the best conditions for the animals.

Fender

Con-Tented Fenders are designed with three primary goals in mind – easy handling, robustness, and gentleness towards the sow. The fender is available in different variants.

Feed trough for sows

Feed waste in the farrowing area is costly and frustrating. Birds consuming large amounts periodically and spreading diseases in the field pose a health risk to the entire production. This feed trough for sows reduces feed waste in the farrowing area and keeps birds away from the feed, while also allowing feeding by wagon and auger.

Ad-lib feeder for sows

The ad-lib feeder comes with a completely new and innovative concept for feeding sows in the farrowing area. With a handle that delivers 1 kg per pull and the option for ad-libitum setting, the feeder offers numerous benefits. With the large container holding up to 85 kg of feed, the lactating sow has enough feed for several days, meaning that feeding is required only on select days during the lactation period.

Long sow trough

The long trough is designed with its solid form to feed pregnant sows and gilts in outdoor systems. With smooth surfaces, it minimizes the risk of injury to the animals and provides ample space during feeding, reducing fighting.

Grow feeder

With a solid steel foundation and 10 feeding slots, along with a large tank capable of holding about 1 ton of feed, the Grow feeder is the optimal solution for weaned and finishing pigs in outdoor systems.

Clean water tanks

Clean water tanks are becoming widespread on many farms in the UK, offering a clean water supply directly to pigs without the risk of disease or contamination from birds and other pests. The tanks are made from antimicrobial plastic that inhibits bacterial growth.

Hurdles

Con-Tented Hurdle is designed with three primary goals: easy handling, robustness, and simple cleaning. Made from 25 kg of recycled MDPE (Medium-Density Polyethylene), these fences are extremely strong and durable, making them ideal for daily use in agricultural practices.

What makes MDPE an ideal material for pig shelters?

MDPE, known for its exceptional durability and chemical resistance, creates robust structures that withstand even the most challenging weather conditions. The excellent thermal insulation ensures a comfortable environment for pigs, while MDPE's smooth surface not only makes maintenance and cleaning easier but also maintains a high standard of hygiene in production. The environmental friendliness and recyclability of MDPE make it a sustainable choice, while the absence of sharp edges eliminates the risk of pigs cutting or injuring themselves, prioritizing their safety and well-being at the highest level.
