Animal-friendly cattle races by DGS
To guide animals from the lairage to the stun box in a calm manner, a well-designed drift corridor is essential. Our innovative drive corridors are based on the principles of zoologist and animal welfare expert Temple Grandin, with every detail carefully considered The gradually sloping floor and wide curves encourage calm animal passage, while the concrete floor profile prevents slippage. The high walls of our drift corridors minimise stress from environmental stimuli and prevent animals from jumping over the walls, ensuring staff safety.
The concrete walls are finished on the inside with CORTEN steel to prevent glare and create a calm environment, while the outside is stainless steel. An automatic gate ensures smooth transit towards the drift corridor at the push of a button, preventing animals from running back.

Automatic pusher
The automatic pusher by DGS provides an innovative and animal-friendly method to guide animals through the driving race. This pusher is designed for animals that are stationary in the corridor. It encourages the animals to calmly and constantly move forward towards the anaesthetic cage, thereby permanently eliminating the need for the use of electric prods.
This solution is particularly suitable for animals less familiar with corridors, such as bulls and calves. It also works well in situations where animals walk less easily and naturally towards the stun cage.
- Animal-friendly guiding the animals
- No need for electric prods
