How?
One extra piglet in the next litter from a sow that leaves the farrowing pen in better shape with improved subsequent ovulation?
Ensuring an optimal climate for both the sow and the piglets in farrowing pens is becoming increasingly important. In most farrowing houses, the main focus is creating an ideal climate for the piglets, but the Cool Sow system also provides a cool place for the sow to lie down. As a result, sows eat more and better, and produce better milk. They also end the farrowing period in much better shape, which improves their subsequent ovulations.
Polydeck is Nooyen's new composite floor, a sustainable and hygienic alternative to concrete
The composite structure is 100% sealed, so it is non-absorbent and does not become porous. This results in an extremely long service life. Polydeck is self-supporting, and currently being implemented on the market.
