Building Solutions in Agriculture

“My decision on storage was simple where after visiting farms in Germany I saw stores that had been up for over 20 years. To my amazement, they were as good as new. After seeing these, the only option for me was to go for stainless steel due to the appearance and extended lifespan. It is a store that will see through my sons farming career.”

“I am very pleased with my Finrone 304Store, it has the whole package from residual value, strength, aesthetic appearance and being environmentally friendly. It is exactly the solution that I needed and it ticks all my requirements. It is a maintenance and corrosion free store which I would recommend to any farmer.”

“Since we installed the Portapig Farrowing houses my mortality has fallen by over 8% resulting in my farm now producing over 800 extra pigs per year. This has been a huge financial boost to our farms profitability and has also given me confidence to invest further in new housing. It has helped show me how to achieve better results using new housing with a lower level of labour and management. I rank it as one of the best decisions taken for our farm yet.”

Mr John Rigby

“Our farm has been using Portapig farrowing, nursery and grower buildings for almost 15 years. The main benefits I have found are excellent pig performance, our farm now achieves over 29 pigs per sow weaned and 28.55 pigs sold per sow per year. I am very confident that in the near future we will achieve over 30 pigs weaned per sow per year in our Portapig Farrowing Buildings. Our staffs enjoy working in the Portapig buildings with their easy to clean design creating a very hygienic environment.”

Mr. Stuart Bosworth

“Five years ago we bought a 4x20 place Portapig farrowing house. These have proven to be an exceptional investment, we wean half a piglet extra per litter with +0.4kg extra weight per piglet at weaning compared to our old farrowing rooms. The houses are easy to pressure wash and are showing no signs of wear. Six months ago we bought three Portapig Duo weaner/grower buildings, housing 600 pigs per building from 7kg-40kg. Finrone also supplied a Weda multiphase feeding system and early trial work shows exceptional growth rates from pigs in these buildings. Over 6000 pigs have so far passed through these buildings with a mortality rate of only 0.3%.”

David Owers, Limestone Farming Company, Lincolnshire

“After years away from pig farming I decided to move back into the pig sector. I was looking for a company that could provide me with a farrowing building that offers proven results and ease of management and Finrone Systems were my supplier of choice for these reasons. The 20 place Portapig units supplied by Finrone Systems provide a very hygienic environment to work in and they have also proved to be very easily managed with excellent performance on weaner pigs. The Finrone Portapig farrowing units have been an excellent investment for our farm and they would be my first choice for future development on our farm”

Tom Bell, Lance Butts Farm, York

“We were looking for a new building to replace a straw yard and we looked at various companies but went with Finrone because they built the building that I wanted rather than the building company telling me what I should have. We had preferences and the Finrone building fitted the bill that we required. The biggest improvement is on the growth of the pigs, they are growing a lot faster than they were before. We’re spending a lot less time shifting pigs, mucking pigs and the saving in time has been a big advantage. The pigs are looking better and it’s all been a plus.”
