Plastics poultry products: an innovative and sustainable solution for poultry farming

A relevant sector for the poultry industry are the companies that produce equipment and installations for poultry farms. BYPC Plastic has been a leader for more than 27 years in the development and implementation of these sustainable and efficient solutions.

To meet the best standards of hygiene, strength, cost, ease of use and accessibility, plastic has been used as a raw material. This material is suitable for use in poultry farming due to its versatility.

Plastic has its own characteristics that set it apart from other materials. On the one hand, plastic equipment does not suffer from corrosion or oxidation, so it does not cause animal diseases or deterioration. On the other hand, the modern designs allow easy assembly and disassembly of the installations, since they are delivered in disassembled modules, as well as their adaptability according to the species of poultry or production stage.

The global poultry industry is growing steadily, However, this growth poses new challenges to poultry farms in terms of poultry management and good use of equipment and facilities.

For this reason, BYPC Plastic has developed a range of products that are ideal for use on farms.

They are regularly made from high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP), which offer amazing resistance to erosion, chemicals, and the cruel conditions of poultry houses. Plastic supports are lightweight, making them less demanding to handle amid establishment and upkeep. They too give great warm separator and offer a comfortable surface for the birds.

Plastic slat floor Advantages

Efficient waste management and improved hygiene within the poultry house:

Better air quality and reduced ammonia levels, enhancing the respiratory health of the birds:

By separating the birds from their waste, slatted floor systems help maintain healthier air quality within the poultry house. This reduces the concentration of ammonia, which can negatively impact the birds' respiratory health. Improved air quality contributes to better overall welfare and performance.
