Durable poultry handling solutions for transport and processing

Wrightfield supplies a range of Gamma-Wopla poultry transport drawers and hatchery crates for poultry processors, growers and hatchery operations across the UK and Ireland.

Built tough. Tested to prove it

Poultry drawers face repeated handling, loading and movement throughout their working life, so durability can make a real difference to operating costs. Gamma-Wopla drawers have been put through demanding drop tests from 2 metres, 4 metres and 10 metres, with no cracks or splits recorded.

 

The videos demonstrate the robust construction of the drawers and their ability to withstand significant impacts.

 

Greater durability can mean fewer damaged drawers, fewer unexpected replacements and less disruption to live bird handling operations — helping to reduce downtime and the ongoing cost of damaged equipment.

Perforated sides and bases promote airflow around the birds during transport and handling, supporting ventilation while maintaining the strength and structural integrity required for demanding poultry operations.

Ventilated

Manufactured from robust, impact-resistant plastic, the drawers are designed to withstand repeated loading, unloading and handling, helping reduce damage, replacement costs and disruption to processing.

Durable

Designed for secure, efficient stacking within poultry transport systems, helping maximise available space while providing the stability needed for transportation, automated handling and movement through the processing plant.

Stackable

Different drawer depths, colours and specialist chick crates allow the range to accommodate different poultry applications, transport requirements and handling systems, providing greater flexibility when specifying the right solution.
