Himmerlandskød Creates a Healthy Work Environment with Effective Ventilation

Himmerlandskød, which merged with four slaughterhouses in 2018, took an important step towards creating a modern slaughterhouse facility in Aalestrup that could accommodate up to 110,000 cattle per year. From the perspective of Denmark's second-largest slaughter and processing company, there was a strong desire to create a good indoor climate where production could always be supplied with fresh air. It was also important that the temperature in the departments could be regulated according to food safety requirements and employee work environments. In addition, it was essential that moisture in the building could be controlled, and air disturbances minimized.

Bardram worked closely with Himmerlandskød to tailor a comprehensive solution that met the company's needs, budget, and regulatory requirements. The integrated approach ensured that all ventilation components worked together harmoniously.

In collaboration with the customer, we proposed a solution that best matched Himmerlandkød's desires, needs, budget, as well as technical and regulatory requirements. By offering a comprehensive solution, we could better provide the customer with the best results, where the installed elements work together more effectively.

At the slaughter lines, we installed ventilation systems that, using supply air units, heat or cool up to 78,000 cubic meters of air per hour, depending on the operating conditions. This ensures that Himmerlandkød's employees have the best conditions for the right climate. It should also be noted that the largest ventilation system on site is now capable of handling 60,000 cubic meters of air per hour.

The boning facility was equipped with recirculation to maintain the correct room temperature and help the slaughterhouse dry the room after cleaning.

The slaughterhouse corridor was equipped with powerful exhaust using booster units, which effectively directed the air to the common exhaust and then up through a 40-meter high chimney, eliminating air disturbances for neighbors. Process extraction was implemented at the source to reduce air exchange and capture pollution directly at the source, further contributing to a healthy work environment.
