Description

Providing calves with proper protection against harsh weather can help reduce stress on their bodies. This can lead to better overall health and growth rates.

Agriplastic calf jackets are purpose-built protective garments crafted to ensure the well-being and health of young calves within agricultural environments. Made from robust and weather-resistant materials, these jackets serve as a vital component of modern livestock management practices.

The primary objective of calf jackets is to shield newborn and young calves from the challenges posed by varying weather conditions, particularly during colder seasons. They function as an insulating barrier against the cold, retaining the calves’ body heat and helping to prevent hypothermia. This aspect is especially crucial for newborn calves, which have not fully developed the ability to regulate their body temperature.

Beyond temperature regulation, calf jackets also alleviate stress on these young animals. By offering a sense of security and comfort, the jackets facilitate smoother transitions during critical life stages, such as weaning. Moreover, they play a pivotal role in maintaining hygiene and cleanliness by preventing calves from getting wet or dirty in damp conditions.

Agriplastic calf jackets are designed with practicality in mind. Many variants are adjustable, ensuring a snug and customised fit for calves of varying sizes and ages. Proper ventilation is also integrated into their design, preventing overheating and ensuring optimal airflow.
