Company Description: 

The mission of AHPharma is to conduct private research for the agriculture industry and reinvest in the core business of the design, development, and commercialization of new technologies for improving animal agriculture production, nutrition, health, energy savings and housing techniques.

AHPharma’s radiant floors are designed to provide heat closer to bird activity via hot-water piping. By only emitting heat where it is needed, growers can reduce propane usage by up to 75 percent.

The company’s LED lighting system for poultry houses, called AviLighting®, reduces energy cost for growers by up to 94 percent per year over incandescent bulbs.
