About Tulderhof
Tulderhof helps livestock farmers to promote animal welfare and improve animal performance by creating optimal living conditions with innovative ventilation and animal welfare products. Animal welfare is just as important as animal production these days. After all, both factors affect each other. The essence of all Tulderhof ventilation systems, air inlets, daylight systems and pop hole doors is to create an optimal barn climate and pleasant living conditions for the good health of your animals.
History
Since 1987
Tulderhof was founded in 1987 by broiler farmer Jan de Graaf. In that year, Jan developed his own ventilation system for his barn and put this product on the market under the name Tulderhof Agrosystems. In the following years, Tulderhof developed several innovative ventilation systems for livestock farming, including Tulderhof air inlets.
