Kaleter has recently won the EPC contract for the Jinlai breeder project. The win rests on Kaleter's proven project designs, its experience in delivering breeder projects and its one-stop EPC service. The project has now entered the steel structure construction stage.

Project highlights

A good house is the first safeguard for raising breeders well. Kaleter supplies a prefabricated steel structure system made for livestock housing and designed for large-scale breeder farms. It uses zinc-aluminum-magnesium coated steel, which resists corrosion, wind and snow. The structure is stable and durable.

The structure is made in the factory and assembled on site, so construction is fast and efficient. Inside, a wide clear span with no columns allows a flexible layout. It fits the full range of automated equipment for feeding, drinking, egg collection, manure removal and climate control. The insulated envelope is tightly sealed and insulates well. This makes it easy to control temperature, humidity and ventilation in the house precisely. It also supports biosecurity, saves energy and makes later maintenance easier. The result is a stable and comfortable building for the breeders.
