About Artex Barn Solutions

Artex Barn Solutions is a team of dedicated dairy professionals who are passionate about cow comfort and the success of the farmers we work with. Pioneers of cow comfort research, Artex and our partners were some of the first to use time lapse photography to understand cow behaviour and comfort within the barn compared to pasture environments.

Our research led to the development of our complete line of Comfort Zone cattle handling products, including freestalls, headlocks, calf pens, gates, and fencing. Artex also specializes in ventilation products, providing an innovative lineup of recirculation fans, exhaust fans, and cooling solutions.
