In France, and in 48 countries worldwide, JOURDAIN products are synonymous with quality and robustness.
They are trusted everywhere for their clever design, their longevity, and their adaptability to all kinds of climates and farms.
The farmers who use our products know they can rely on the attention and support of a dense network of 1,200 JOURDAIN distributors/stockists and a dedicated technical sales team. This proximity makes JOURDAIN the leader in bovine tubular products.
The strong relationship between JOURDAIN, its dealers and farmers inspires us every day to expand and improve our range. It provides a constant source of motivation for all 220 employees of the group.
Our aim is to facilitate farmers’ everyday lives, and to ensure their safety and the comfort of their animals, with products designed and adapted as closely as possible to livestock activities and morphologies."
MORE THAN 850 PRODUCTS IN THE JOURDAIN CATALOGUE
Our catalogue offers a complete range to meet all the requirements of farmers. They can be sure of finding the right solution for every type of farm, facility and livestock.
Cattle: These heavy, powerful animals require robust equipment to ensure the safety of farmers while handling them. JOURDAIN products cover every need, whether in the field or in the stable, including headlocks and self-service racks for feeding, cubicles for sleeping, barriers for containment, as well as safe, secure locking systems such as the SURLOCK and AUTOLOCK®.
Sheep and goats: These smaller livestock benefit from all the experience acquired among cattle, with equipment adapted to their size and specificities to ensure optimal breeding conditions.
Horses: JOURDAIN provides a range of steel and resin horse boxes as well as self-service hayracks.
With 180 tons of equipment shipped every day, the availability of our products is continuously maintained within a vast network of JOURDAIN dealers.
WHY CHOOSE JOURDAIN EQUIPMENT?
On the farm, JOURDAIN products are instantly recognisable. They combine tubular structures made from hot-dip galvanised steel with red and green composite parts for the non-metallic sections, all stamped with the name JOURDAIN, creating an immediate impression of quality.
The robustness of our products, their decades-long resistance to atmospheric corrosion, the precision of each welded joint, and the attention paid to the smallest detail, all ensure a future-proof investment for the farmer.
Best products for cattle, sheep, goat, and horse breeding
More than 75 patents testify to the innovative design behind our products, in many cases serving as a benchmark for the entire sector. “Lead, don’t follow” is our guiding motto.
During the production phase in our workshops, French steel is cut, bent, welded and hot-dip galvanised using exacting procedures performed by qualified workers and high-precision machines.
Each step in the manufacturing process is subject to strict quality control and full traceability. The safety and comfort of farmers and their livestock is paramount, so we make it a point of honour to maintain the very highest standards.
Products tested on farms and approved by breeders
Before going to market, our prototypes are tested in the field under actual conditions. Close scrutiny by farmers makes it possible to provide final improvements where necessary.
Easy to assemble and handle, JOURDAIN products come with assembly instructions and video tutorials, directly accessible from the product sheets. Our regional technical sales staff and 1,200 JOURDAIN dealers are at your disposal.
