Anticipating climate trends in the poultry market
With the new update of the innovative Fortica® automation system, Hotraco is anticipating the latest climate trends in the poultry market.
Ventilation via heat exchangers
The trend in poultry houses is more and more ventilation via heat exchangers. With the Fortica® system, the poultry farmer can control the heat exchangers perfectly, creating the optimum climate while keeping heating costs low. Up to four heat exchangers may be activated at the same time.

System ventilation
By System ventilation we mean all the systems that are used to distribute (conditioned) air throughout the housing system in the layer house via the existing ventilation ducts. System ventilation has two functions. On the one hand, it supplies the animals with fresh air, and on the other, this air is used to dry out the manure better. Considering the welfare of the hens, too much air should not be blown in in the immediate vicinity of the animals, nor must it be too cold. This is regulated with the intelligent Fortica® control system.
