Our mission
"Our shared goal is for the building to meet all the requirements for the welfare of the animals kept in it and, as a result, to bring the farm owner maximum profit."

The HAZE story

We build livestock buildings that work for the animals and the operation.

I founded HAZE in 2007 with a simple aim - to manufacture gates and ventilation systems that really work in livestock buildings.

We design every solution to suit the specific operation and we manufacture and install it ourselves. Thanks to our own development and manufacture, we can prepare a technical solution made exactly to measure - from side and ridge ventilation through gates to other systems and accessories for livestock buildings.

Our typical customers are agricultural cooperatives and family farms. We deal directly with directors, livestock managers or farm owners and we speak their language - milk yield, welfare, the milking schedule. No marketing jargon.

Today we have more than 10,000 completed projects behind us in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and abroad, and our own 2,500 m² production plant in Křičeň.

Our journey
2007

HAZE founded

We start manufacturing gates and ventilation for livestock buildings.

2021

New premises in Křičeň

We move all manufacturing and the offices to new premises. Our own 2,500 m² plant is approved for use and the project is co-financed from EU and state funds.

2022

Digitalisation and automation of manufacturing

We introduce the collection and analysis of manufacturing data for more accurate planning and better quality.

2023

Improved logistics processes

We optimise the route from manufacture in Křičeň to installation at the customer's site.

2025

Online product configurator

We launch a configurator connected directly to the manufacturing system.

How we work

From design to installation.

We guide you through the whole project - from the first on-site survey through manufacture in our own plant to installation and servicing.

01

Consultation and on-site survey

We come to the site, measure the actual openings and listen to what the livestock building needs.

02

Made-to-measure quotation

We design a solution to fit your operation exactly - dimensions, materials and scope.

03

Manufacture in our own plant

We manufacture in-house in Křičeň, across 2,500 m². Quality control stays in our hands.

04

Installation by our own team

Installation is carried out by our own installation team. After handover we train the operators and issue the warranty.

05

Maintenance and servicing

After handover we remain available - we look after what we have built.

Subsidies and projects

We invest in our own operations.

Part of our development is carried out with support from the European Union and the state budget of the Czech Republic.

98.4 kWp photovoltaic power plant

Our own rooftop power plant without storage at the production premises in Křičeň. It reduces emissions and operating costs - we generate part of the energy for manufacturing and for the premises ourselves.
