Since 1991 Holm & Laue has been developing state-of-the-art
feeding technology for performance-oriented calf husbandry. Today,
these solid and weather-proof systems form the basis of labour-saving
and healthy calf rearing around the world. Many characteristics
that are considered standard in modern feeding technology
originate in developments from Holm & Laue.
Please have a look at some milestones of the history of our company:
| 1994 |
The company focuses on weight-dependent feed
dispensing. This means that feed quantity is determined
in relation to the weight gain of the calves. |
| 1996 |
The Joker Calf Feeder is introduced and features two mixer
bowls, which can be used to feed two calves their individually
customised ration simultaneously. |
| 1998 |
The water-adding, temperature-driven mixing system “TOM”
is awarded the DLG Silver Medal at the 1998 Eurotier show. |
| |
The spatious group igloo from Holm & Laue, size approx. 15m²
(161½sq.ft) is one of the few true product innovations in
recent years. In the meantime, it has become the basis for healthy
outdoor calf husbandry around the world. |
| 2000 |
The new H&L 100 Calf Feeder replaces the H&L Joker.
The functional principles that stood the test are
complemented with further options. With a design that pleases
the eye, the H&L 100 looks like the feeder of the future
that it is and that does not leave anything to be desired. |
| |
The transition to the H&L 100 is also a new impulse
for our export business. Farmers in many countries around the
world can turn the advantages of our modern feeding technology
to their benefit. |
| 2002 |
Holm & Laue extends the scope of the H&L Igloo and turns
it into a full outdoor calf housing system. The H&L Igloo
is the optimum solution to bring calf health and work efficiency
in line with each other. |
| 2004 |
On the occasion of the Eurotier 2004 show, Holm & Laue is
awarded the Innovation Prize of DLZ Publishers for the H&L Igloo
Verandah, which is honoured as an innovation particulary close to the practice of the job. |
| 2005 |
The H&L Milk Taxi is a further complement to the product line
to allow feeding calves in individual hutches and with teat feeder buckets;
yet another element of state-of-the-art calf feeding. |
| 2006 |
The most recent development is a process-controlled pasteuriser for
milk intended for the calf diet, which is available as an additional option
for the Milk Taxi. |
The fact that all these product innovations continue to show growing
numbers of units sold and that they open up new markets for us by the day,
shows how closely they are in line with what the people on the job need. |
