Margaret River Free Range Eggs

Margaret River Free Range Eggs were looking for a system that was quick and easy and could achieve temperature control inside of the two Layer Sheds according to the changes in the weather. Additional shed renovations were also required to upgrade shed access with gate & extra layer boxes.

The Challenge

The initial install was to recycle old internal curtains, cut down, re-stick & re-instate old side during the 12-monthly cleanout.  A high amount of support labour needed to be supplied by client to be cost effective.
