Big news from Kaleter's home plant in Zhucheng: backed by deep technical experience, a mature, complete cage-free equipment lineup, and a long track record of large-scale installations already running in the field, we've won the bid for Zhucheng Waimao's broiler welfare farming project.
The awarded scope covers a complete line of Kaleter's self-developed, modular cage-free broiler equipment — spanning feeding, perching, and activity space — built to deliver welfare-standard farming and high production efficiency together, not as a trade-off.
Smart feed pans: precision feeding, tight loss control
Feed is the single largest cost in broiler farming, and conventional feeding setups bleed money to spillage, moldy buildup, and uneven intake. Kaleter's premium broiler feed pans are purpose-built to close those gaps at scale.
Adjusts to the full growth cycle — pan height is freely adjustable, sitting low during brooding for easy access by chicks and rising through the mid-to-late stages to match adult feeding habits, so there's no blind spot in feeding access at any age.
Cuts spillage at the source — a widened guard paired with an inward-tapered feeding trough stops scratch-out waste and spillage before it happens, trimming a meaningful share of feed cost on a large operation over time.
Multi-tier perching frames: restoring natural behavior, lowering disease
Broilers instinctively seek elevated perches. Flat-floor rearing alone tends to produce crowding, ground-level ammonia buildup, and chronic stress. Kaleter's multi-tier perching frames put animal welfare first, reshaping how birds use the space.
Tiered by design — a graduated, multi-level layout matches broilers' natural jumping and perching instincts, preventing the crowding that drives down survival rates.
Off the ground — lifting birds clear of damp floor conditions and concentrated ammonia cuts respiratory and eye disease at the root, and reduces how much medication a flock needs.
Built for scale — hot-dip galvanized steel frames resist corrosion and hold up over years of use, and the modular construction reconfigures to fit any house size, installing and breaking down quickly enough for large rollouts.
Multi-level activity platforms: doubling usable space
Land and house space are the limiting factor on how much a welfare-standard operation can produce. Kaleter's multi-function activity platforms reclaim a house's vertical space to balance welfare farming with high-density output.
Stacks production vertically — a stepped, multi-tier platform breaks past the footprint limits of flat-floor rearing, substantially raising stocking capacity within cage-free welfare standards.
Zoned by function — gentle, non-slip ramps let birds move freely between levels, naturally splitting the house into feeding, resting, and activity zones, with clearance reserved underneath for ventilation and manure removal to keep humidity and harmful gas concentration down.
Going forward, this self-developed equipment lineup stays at the center of how we help partners raise quality, cut cost, and improve efficiency — working toward a regional standard for cage-free broiler demonstration sites where welfare farming and high output aren't a trade-off.
