Lubratec® Tube Air

Better barn climate with tube ventilation according to requirements

With the help of the Lubratec Tube Air ventilation system you can ensure a continuous reduction of the germ pressure in the barn. Permanent barn ventilation with draught-free fresh air directly at the animal prevents respiratory diseases and infections. An enormous improvement in animal health, which is also reflected in reduced treatment costs by veterinarians.

The ventilation tubes are calculated and produced individually according to the requirements.
You are welcome to make use of our on-site veterinary consultation to achieve maximum animal health!

Impact of Tubes

On livestock farming

Product benefits

  • Constant food intake and longer lying times
  • Shown to be most cost-effective system on market*
  • Up to 3 ltr increase in milk yield per cow**
  • Measurable stress reduction – healthier cows

Impact on calf farming

37 calf barns were fitted with Lubratec Tubes Air. 66-68 %** fewer respiratory illnesses were observed as a result, leading to a 72-87 %** reduction in the costs for antibiotic treatment.

* Basis of comparison: Cooling systems with wind chill effect; defined air speed per animal; purchase costs and energy costs for a two year period (for a constant fan running time in hours).
**Compared to dairy cows kept in unventilated barns and under ideal conditions..
