Why is specialized animal lighting important for farm productivity and animal welfare?
Animals experience and respond to light differently than humans. By using lighting adapted to their specific needs, we can influence their behavior, reduce stress, and improve biological rhythms.
Proper light intensity, color spectrum, and timing help create a calm, natural environment where animals feel safe and thrive. This directly boosts productivity: hens lay more eggs, cows produce more milk, and pigs show reduced stress and aggression. In short, specialized animal lighting supports well-being and farm performance, making your operation more efficient, sustainable, and profitable.
How does HATO Lighting support farmers and partners (distributors, installers) in improving agricultural lighting?
At HATO, we combine 50+ years of expertise with a collaborative approach to deliver lighting solutions that perform in real-world conditions. For farmers, we offer tailored lighting plans, installation guidance, and animal-specific systems.
For distributors and installers, we provide training, technical documentation, and long-term support to ensure smooth project delivery. Our lighting is engineered for tough barn conditions and designed for both animal comfort and farm efficiency. Whether upgrading or starting fresh, HATO is your trusted partner — from lighting design to long-term success.
What is “animal-adapted” lighting and how does it benefit different livestock?
Animal-adapted lighting means using light that’s customized to each species’ vision and behavior. For example, chickens need dimmable, color-sensitive lighting to feel safe during sunrise and sunset. Pigs benefit from uniform, shadow-free light to reduce aggression and improve comfort. Cows thrive under bright daylight during active hours and total darkness at night to support natural cycles.
At HATO, we fine-tune color temperature, light intensity, and timing to create ideal conditions for each animal group. The result is healthier, calmer animals, better production, and a more welfare-friendly farm environment.
