HatchTraveller - Rigid box
The rigid truck is HatchTraveller’s innovative transportation solution for challenging infrastructure environments. It provides space for up to 81,600 day-old chicks and attaches easily to the truck’s axles. The rigid truck option is equipped with a unique climate-control system as standard, based on HatchTech‘s laminar airflow technology and patented perforated radiators. There are four different sections within the trailer as well as more than 600 individual chick-level air vents through which fresh outside air reaches each of the chick baskets to provide optimal cooling. The rigid truck system also comes with a sustainable, hybrid power solution designed to reduce fuel costs as well as CO 2 emissions. The system runs primarily in electricity, with a genset only brought into use whilst the trailer is being charged. The capacity of the system depends on the type of transport baskets being used; the maximum load per journey is 81,600 chicks.
