The hatchery project is the third large-scale hatchery that HatchTech will build for Ingham's after projects in Queensland (2006) and South Australia (2016). Mr. Timos Lolis, Group Head of Capital Projects says: “we are proud that we have taken the decision to install the latest technology of HatchTech – including HatchCare – into this new hatchery complex. We are looking forward to starting the construction, and hatching healthy and strong day old chicks. Ingham's prides itself on its leading market position, high quality product, and the ongoing development of its supply chain to meet current and future customer needs. We support this with a strong focus on innovation and commitment to food safety, environmental sustainability and animal welfare. The choice for HatchTech – and early feeding and fresh water via HatchCare – is based on information that was collected during multiple reference visits and discussions with poultry specialists. We are looking forward to continuing our strong relationship with HatchTech.”
“Our agreement with Ingham's and their choice for HatchCare, confirms the global success of early feeding and drinking. We are honored and proud that Ingham's, an integrated poultry producer of international standing and reputation, yet again chooses for HatchTech for this important and large-scale project”, says Marc de Visser, International Sales Manager HatchTech.
