DanHatch Poland (DHP) stands as the foremost independent producer of one-day-old broiler chicks in Poland. With a steadfast dedication to productivity, animal health, and welfare, the company operates as part of the esteemed DanHatch Group.
Renowned for its relentless pursuit of excellence, DHP continually refines its methodologies and procedures, elevating every facet of hatching-egg production and hatchery operations.
Positioned as a leading entity in Europe, the company exemplifies efficiency and
innovation, setting benchmarks within the industry landscape.
In March 2023, DHP embarked on a strategic initiative to strengthen its biosecurity control program by adopting ATP Surface Testing. Leveraging VetAssure™ ATP surface swabs and EnSure® Touch luminometer, this new approach has strengthened the company’s routine biosecurity procedures related to hygiene and sanitation.
Jakub Kucharski, a seasoned veterinarian overseeing comprehensive biosecurity
procedures within the hatchery and across farms, sheds light on the rationale for introducing this cutting-edge system and its practical benefits.
Safeguarding Quality
One of the paramount strengths of DHP lies in its products’ consistent and creditable quality. This directly results from strict process control measures implemented throughout rearing and production farms and within the hatchery environment.
One key aspect of their control framework is the concept of biosecurity, which includes
a range of proactive measures aimed at averting disease-related challenges. By continuously refining their biosecurity measures, DHP ensures optimal conditions that support prime product quality.
Embracing VetAssure not only simplified cleanliness verification but also raised the bar for new, higher biosecurity standards in the hatchery industry.
"The VetAssure system enables real-time and routine cleanliness monitoring across the entire operation and facilitates more robust data analysis and informed decision-making."
