Clarence Stolte is a dairy farmer managing a herd of over 500 cows. He needed a solution that could maintain the cow's wellbeing during winter, ensure a high milk-production base year-round and reduce environmental impact. 

He chose to build with Aztech to design a composting barn.

The composting barn was constructed using timber poles and Futura Box-Beam steel roof structure. The implementation of this structure was the ideal solution for Clarence - his cows are sheltered from severe weather conditions, reducing illness and increasing the overall milk productivity across all seasons.
