When tradition meets innovation, the results can be game-changing. That’s exactly what’s happening in the world of poultry farming, where GANAL Poultry Equipment and HATO Lighting have joined forces to bring next-level lighting solutions to the layer sector.
Let’s rewind for a second. GANAL isn’t just any player in the poultry equipment game. Founded in 1953 and based in Sedaví, Valencia, this Spanish company has been shaping the industry for over 70 years. From vertical layer cages and egg conveyors to ventilation systems and composting solutions, GANAL has built a name on engineering precision, full in-house production, and a global presence that stretches from Europe to Africa, Asia, and the Americas.
Not Just a Supplier, But a Strategic Partner
But even with all that legacy, GANAL isn’t stuck in the past. They’re constantly pushing forward, looking for smarter, more sustainable ways to support poultry producers.
So when it came time to upgrade the lighting in their new layer houses, they weren’t just looking for a supplier. They were looking for a partner who understands that lighting isn’t just about visibility. It’s about animal welfare, energy efficiency, and long-term performance.

The HATO Approach: Designed for Birds, Built for Results
Introducing the LED BUBO System
That’s where HATO stepped in.
Together, we kicked off a project that’s all about future-focused poultry lighting. The solution? Our LED BUBO system. It’s a lighting setup designed specifically for poultry environments. It’s uniform. It’s dimmable. It’s tailored to the biological needs of the birds. And it’s built to last.
A Five-House Rollout
The first phase of the project spans five houses, with installation starting in July and wrapping up by the end of September. But this isn’t just about ticking boxes. It’s about creating a lighting environment that supports healthier birds, reduces stress, and boosts production performance, all while cutting down on energy use.

Early Results, Real Impact
This collaboration is already delivering results. We’re seeing smoother integration of technology, better light distribution, and a noticeable shift in how the birds respond to their environment.
And the best part? This is just the beginning.
What Comes Next?
More joint projects are already in the pipeline. Because when two companies speak the same language - one rooted in precision, progress, and putting animals first - you don’t just shake hands and call it a day.
You roll up your sleeves and get to work on what’s next.
