Day-old chick transport
Trucks and semi-trailers for transporting day-old chicks
Wireless temperature alarm
During transportation, there are often situations when the driver has to leave the vehicle full of chicks: e.g. customs clearance on the borders, travelling on boats, repairing the vehicle or eating in a restaurant, etc.
Our vehicles are equipped with a wireless temperature alarm called Hermes. Hermes is a pocket-size battery powered device, which displays temperature of the chicks during the time the driver is away from the vehicle.
If there are any problems, the driver can see them on the display and can react instantly.
