Jansen produces an intensive aviary system with manure belts and aeration tubes to provide a high density operation with low ammonia emissions. Advantages include: more hatching eggs per bird, minimum of floor eggs, soft nest padding, higher bird density, better climate resulting in lower risk of diseases, less manure.
A modern, enriched cage system for housing commercial layers, the VolMaxx system from Jansen Poultry Equipment is designed to comply with the most recent European regulations for poultry rearing. It is a more-tier system that allows for private nesting, group perching and foraging. It optimizes space in poultry houses by utilizing 22% more living area compared to other enriched cages, which results in a lower investment cost per bird.
Example: House size 50' x 300'
VolMaxx 6 tiers and 4 rows at 72 in2 per bird = 108,864 birds
The equivalent of 39% more birds than a traditional cage system
