At Winkler Canvas, we strive to improve the conditions for your livestock. Our ventilation system allows warm air to flow upward rather than sideways. Fewer fans are needed and the fabric cover is cooler than a steel roof. With better ventilation you will see fewer respiration problems, lower vet bills, improved cow comfort and all around a healthier herd. Most of our dairy farmers have experienced a moderate to a large increase in milk production because of some of these benefits.
Our white fabric allows 83% of the natural light in along with filtering out the UV. This improves the vitamin B intake and improves the processing of vitamin A from feed. The lower lighting and electrical costs are a welcome along with less maintenance time expenses.
The building construction is a galvanized steel framework, which is an open span for an improved environment. It is considered a “portable” building, which can be sold later rather than destroyed. You’re less likely to attract birds and the connections stay tight even in humid conditions. The high strength poly cover has a comparable life span with galvanized steel sheeting and costs much lower if you need to replace. The interior requires less lighting and does not create excessive heat inside.
