An optimal environment is of great importance to poultry. Particularly the first days of growth creates the foundation for the animals' further development. The use of an infrared heating system encourages the growth of young animals. This is because of the radiant heat that warms the animals. This radiation can be compared to the heat from the sun.
Infrared heating systems is applied in agriculture and livestock (poultry, pig breeding, etc) and offer several advantages compared to conventional heating.

Advantages of gas-infrared heating:

• Speeding up animals' growth;
• Lower investment costs;
• Quick and efficient warming-up time;
• No airflow and operating quietly;
• Allows heating an area without walls;
• 50% less CO2 emission compared to conventional heating;
• 60% energy conservation compared to conventional heating;
