Proper feeding is the foundation of a healthy, productive herd. Quality feed alone is not enough, however – how it is presented to the animals matters too. Cattle feeders and hay racks help keep feeding orderly, reduce feed losses and improve hygiene in the barn and in the pasture.
In this category you will find feeders for cattle, sheep and horses, as well as round bale feeders for hay. All products are designed to withstand everyday use while making the farmer’s work easier.

Frequently asked questions
A quality feeder for cattle, sheep or horses minimises feed wastage, reduces contamination and helps maintain hygiene in the feeding area.
Yes. A round feeder is a practical solution for large hay bales, gives several animals access at once and limits waste.
Yes. Different animals have different requirements for height and access to feed, so it is important to choose a suitable feeder for sheep or for horses.
Most feeders and hay racks are made of sturdy steel, often hot-dip galvanised, which ensures a long lifespan and weather resistance.
Quality hay racks and feeders: the basis of healthy, profitable farming
Every experienced farmer knows that feeding hygiene directly affects the health and productivity of animals. Hay racks and feeders for cattle, horses or sheep are not just a simple enclosure for hay. They are a tool that ensures your animals receive feed of the best quality.
Without a sturdy round bale feeder, huge losses occur as the animals scatter the hay and then contaminate it. The right cattle feeder eliminates this problem and creates a clean, orderly feeding place.
For farms that need to store large volumes of feed, our tent halls are the ideal addition. They keep hay dry, preventing mould that could spoil the contents you later put into the cattle feeders.
How to choose the right feeder or hay rack for cattle?
Several factors play a role in the choice:
1. Type of animals
A cattle feeder has different requirements from a sheep hay rack or a horse feeder. Each type of animal needs a different approach to feed.
2. Number of animals
The larger the herd, the greater the capacity of the hay rack or the more units of equipment you need.
3. Type of housing
A different cattle feeder may be suitable for a barn than for open pasture, where the round bale feeder is often the choice.
4. Material and durability
Quality sheep hay racks and cattle feeders should be made of sturdy steel. Hot-dip galvanising protects the structure against corrosion and extends its service life.
Round bale feeder: a practical solution for hay bales
A very popular solution on the farm is the round bale feeder. This type of hay rack is designed so that a bale of hay can be placed in its centre. The animals access the feed around the circumference, allowing several animals to feed comfortably at once.
The main advantages of a round bale feeder:
significantly less hay scattering
better protection of the bale against spoilage
stable steel structure
a suitable solution for cattle and horses alike
If your animals are kept outdoors, the ideal combination is a round bale feeder placed under a solid shelter. In that case we recommend also taking a look at our solutions in the livestock and hay shelters category.
Under a shelter the feed stays dry, the animals are protected from rain and snow, and the cattle feeder itself lasts longer.
Durable structure for daily loads
Quality cattle feeders and hay racks must withstand daily loads. Cattle, horses and sheep lean on the structure while eating, push against it and use it every day. That is why the material is decisive.
Our hay racks are made of hot-dip galvanised steel. This means the steel structure is immersed in molten zinc, which forms a protective layer over the entire surface of the material. This layer protects the steel against corrosion, increases resistance to moisture and rain, extends the life of the structure and minimises the need for maintenance.
Hot-dip galvanised steel is ideal for outdoor use and placement.
