value proposition

Our endeavour to strive for the Best in class products

  • Doors

    Doors are made up of plastic & very easy to operate. The plastic leaves no chance for corrosion, it's very comfortable for the birds and accounts for easy access to feed, and is easy to clean. Top opening doors with a guided track can be raised even with the use of a single hand. With a simple operation, it can be easily closed and locked in position.
  • Feed Thoughts

    Feed troughs are made up of high tensile galvalume material in 1 mm-thickness. The combination of Aluzinc alloy ensures a prolonged life of the cage. The external design of the trough is clever to avoid any spillage of feed and at the same time sturdy enough for labourers to stand on it for maintenance.
  • Partition

    Dhumal’s USP is the use of a more thermo-neutral and long-lasting material - Plastic, all across the different parts of the cage. The side partition and back partition perfectly intertwine with the Primary metal structure. The seamless integration ensures minimal manure accumulation leading to battery hygiene and corrosion resistance. The mesh-type design of the side partition is ideal to achieve better ventilation in the boxes, also comes with an optional arrangement to cut the sides and turn them into enriched as a future possibility. The assembly can be easily steam cleaned or pressure washed at the end of the flock.
  • Manual Removal System

    Our lego type installation arrangement of cages ensures that all the cage boxes are perfectly aligned & hence the manure removal belts are in working in a line. We take special care to maintain the stiffness of these polypropylene belts and also provide a welding gun along with the cages for timely preventive maintenance and smooth functioning. All the manure system parts are galvanised and the rollers are sent through a rubberised coating process to ensure their longevity and efficient working. Our unique differentiation is that every tier gets an independent motor and hence there is significantly less maintenance of belt breakdowns and accumulations due to breakdowns.
  • Egg Collection

    Our automatic egg collection system makes it very easy to collect all the eggs at one central place with the help of a cross conveyor. The gentle and soft automatic conveying reduces manual handling leading to naturally cleaner and less cracked eggs.
  • All Feeding

    All our cages come with a Trolley on Top track cart feeding mechanism with drop tubes for feed deliveries to all birds. Our patent-pending gravimetric feed measurement system ensures that each box gets the same amount of feed.
