The Scotpen sheep handling system is designed by farmers for farmers, focusing on usability and reliability.
We are committed to ensuring the highest standards of animal welfare. Our sheep pens protect and care for livestock while improving operational efficiency.
With our UK & European design rights, we are the only manufacturer with high sheeting on the race sides, significantly improving the animals’ safety and comfort.
The solid, smooth sides:
- Prevent heads and horns from getting caught or damaged, avoiding common injuries seen with open-barred systems.
- Reduce visual distractions, helping sheep stay calm and encouraging a smoother flow through the system.
- Create a more secure and stress-free environment, which is crucial for maintaining animal welfare during handling.
In addition to the high sheeting, the lightweight aluminium construction makes the Scotpen easy to move and adjust, reducing the need for forceful handling.
The system is designed for efficient tasks like weighing, dosing, and sorting, which means animals spend less time in the pen and experience less stress overall.
Together, these features make the Scotpen not just practical, but a welfare-conscious solution that prioritises the safety and wellbeing of both livestock and handlers.
