Innovative solutions for livestock welfare and handling

 

The requirements for modern livestock housing systems have changed significantly in recent years: animal welfare, efficiency, environmental sustainability and ergonomic handling are now at the heart of every professional housing solution. Systems for livestock farming must not only be functional and durable – they must also meet the needs of the animals as well as those of the carers.

LTKON develops comprehensive solutions for livestock farming and animal handling: from animal transport and stable and housing technology to specialised restraint and care facilities. In doing so, we combine engineering expertise with practical planning – with a clear focus on animal welfare, safety, hygiene and economic efficiency.

What are livestock farming systems?

Livestock management systems encompass all facilities, equipment and technologies required for the day-to-day rearing, care and safe handling of farm animals. These include modern housing technology, well-designed transport systems, and ergonomic and safe restraint and treatment areas for care and medical procedures. 

Today, modern animal husbandry systems must meet both legal requirements and the rising expectations regarding animal welfare. They support natural behaviours, promote animal health and reduce stress – for animals as well as for the carers. This results in solutions that sustainably combine efficiency, safety and animal welfare.
