Complete stable equipment by DSD

Home News Reference Erwin Mathezen

More yield through cow comfort

Eleven years ago, Erwin Matthezing from Assen built a new stable with the complete stable equipment from DSD. "Then I asked several companies for a quote," says the dairy farmer with 190 cows. 'Not anymore. After eleven years, all the furnishings are still in place and the box covering is still in pristine condition.

The price-quality ratio at DSD is good. When we wanted to invest in fans two years ago, I immediately knew where I wanted to buy them.'

No young cattle, high production

Erwin has not had young cattle for nine years. “All the cows I milk have been purchased,” says the dairy farmer who has been milking with robots since 2018 and achieves an average production of around 11.000 liters of milk per cow. 'The increase in production that we have achieved in recent years is also due to the cow comfort in the stable.' Spacious Ster boxes, thick Innova mats, a cow brush, ventilation.

'No, I can't really think of what more we could do to make the cow happy.' He has also improved the housing of the dry cows and has now equipped the separation area with new stable equipment, again with the help of DSD stable equipment.

'DSD has its own installation team, they keep agreements and maintain a tight schedule. Above all, they have good, durable material. I love that.'

Satisfied farmers tell

"DSD was able to carry out the entire renovation in-house, which is why I chose them. Moreover, the improvements, such as the addition of the feeding sidewalk, were very much appreciated." > Read more

Willem Beltman from Bellingwolde

"We have decided to switch to better fans because of the increasingly warmer summers. With these new fans we blow fresh air from outside straight through the stable, which is more pleasant for people and animals." > Read more

Hans Peter Vogel from Tijnje

"We noticed that on warm, windless days, our roof insulation and side wall ventilation was not enough to keep the cows comfortable. You notice that the HVLS fans can provide that extra bit of cooling." > Read more

Marije Reijenga from Harich

"We had cows that stood too much and saw a lot of thick heels. Immediately after installing the AUC Waterbeds, the stalls were fully occupied and I saw far fewer thick heels. The waterbeds are more than worth the investment." > Read more

Bart de Kruijf from Werkhoven

"When building my new stable, I opted for a complete DSD design. 11 years later, everything is still in perfect condition. When I wanted to invest in fans two years ago, I immediately knew where I wanted to buy them." > Read more

Erwin Matthezing from Assen

"When I invested in two milking robots, I also had to renovate the stable. I chose Ster cubicles and AUC waterbeds because of the 15-year warranty, which gives confidence. It is clear that the cows lie down and get up easily." > Read more

André Baars from St. Jacobi parish

"In retrospect, I should have opted for the Innova cow bed much earlier. The years of experience of DSD stable equipment with this box covering was the deciding factor for me. They now lie much faster, easier and more, which indicates that they are enjoying themselves." > Read more

"Last month we had new boxes and new cow mattresses installed in our stables by DSD stable furnishings. It was ready in 3 days. We are very satisfied and it turned out super neat."
