As the demand for poultry and eggs grows, so does the need for safe and efficient chicken layer houses. Steel constructions offer significant advantages for layer farms – strength, durability, expandability and crucially, inherent fire resistance. As a leader in metal solutions, Lida Group focuses on designing and building fireproof steel layer houses.

Founded in 1993, Lida Group initially provided solutions for logistics and industry. In 2010, seeing the potential of metal structures for poultry farms, the company widened its focus to include agricultural constructions out of steel.

Since then, Lida Group has built a multitude of fireproof steel structures for poultry and egg farms across China and abroad. Their expertise lies in transforming standard steel components into functional yet scientific layer houses.

Lida Group utilizes several strategies to make their steel layer houses both productive and fireproof:

Inherent Fire Resistance – Steel is non-combustible, offering inherent fire resistance while retaining its strength when exposed to high temperatures. This is critical for containing fires within layer houses.

Fireproof Insulation – Lida Group uses fire resistant insulation materials like mineral wool for openings in steel frames. These can withstand temperatures over 1000 degrees Celsius.

Fireproof Electrical Systems – All electrical systems installed by Lida Group meet strict agricultural safety standards. Flame resistant cables and accessories are used to minimize fire hazard.

Automatic Sprinklers – Lida Group integrates sprinkler systems that activate once a fire is detected to douse flames, prevent spread and save lives of poultry. The sprinklers are specially designed for harsh environments.

Compartmentalization – Lida Group’s steel layer house designs incorporate fire-rated walls, doors and floors to contain fires within limited areas, minimizing losses.

Escape Hatches – Liday Group ensures additional exits and hatches to facilitate safe evacuation of poultry during fire incidents. These are designed to withstand heat while allowing escape.

Ventilation – Adequate ventilation is provided to prevent accumulation of gases and optimize airflow to limit the spread of fires, should they occur.

These strategies enable Lida Group to build some of the safest and most productive layer houses. Their clients benefit from durable steel structures that protect farm operations from fire hazards through scientific design and technologies.

Lida Group hopes that through fireproof yet sustainable metal constructions, they can demonstrate how agricultural productivity need not compromise on safety. The company envisions metal solutions defining the future of safe, efficient and humane livestock farming.

With steel-based structures acting as test beds, Lida Group aims to develop technologies and practices that promote safer, more sustainable habitats for humans and animals alike.
