From September 2nd to 4th, 2024, Creva organised a focused visit to Huber Technik, a leading name in agricultural technology. Representatives from Wales, Ireland, Estonia, and Poland gathered to explore Huber Technik’s cutting-edge solutions and gain valuable insights into the future of livestock and dairy farming.
Since 1990, Huber Technik has become Europe’s leader in specifically animal-friendly, seamless rubber floorings. It manufactures comfort rolls and top covers from high-quality new rubber material in Erding, Germany.
Huber Technik has had more rubber roll installed which is still in use after over 10 years than any other company worldwide. All Huber Technik products are made from ‘new tyre compound’, making it the only rolled rubber manufacturer in the world to use this type of compound. Its comfort rolls have been proven to be six times stronger than similar products of this kind. Huber Technik comfort and alley rolls have all been certified by DLG. All Huber floorings are made exclusively in its factory in Erding.
Day 1: Exploring Huber Technik's Factory and Farm Applications
The first day was dedicated to an in-depth exploration of Huber Technik’s manufacturing excellence and product application. Participants visited the Huber Technik factory, where they witnessed the precision and advanced engineering that go into creating their renowned agricultural products. The factory tour provided a comprehensive understanding of the technology that powers Huber Technik’s solutions, offering a glimpse into the future of farming.
The day also included visits to farms where Huber Technik products are in active use. These visits were crucial for understanding how the technology performs in real-world settings, showcasing the competitive advantages that Huber Technik offers to livestock and dairy operations. Participants saw the impact of these innovations on farm productivity and animal welfare, reinforcing the value of Huber Technik’s offerings.
Following the tours, Huber Technik and Creva companies delivered presentations that highlighted their latest technologies and innovations. These sessions provided the dealers with essential knowledge, empowering them to better advise farmers on the most effective solutions for their needs.
Day 2: Networking and Cultural Insights at the Karpfhamer Fest
On the second day, the focus shifted slightly as participants attended the Karpfhamer Fest in Erding, a major Bavarian festival known for its agricultural trade fair. Although the festival is rooted in tradition, it serves as a critical platform for exploring new agricultural technologies and trends. The event allowed participants to further engage with the latest developments in farming equipment, livestock breeding, and crop management.
For the dealers, this was not only an opportunity to learn but also to network with peers and industry experts. The insights gained here, combined with the knowledge from the Huber Technik visit, will be instrumental in advising and supporting farmers across Europe.
