In their own words, our clients tell you how Atlex's expertise and equipment have improved their stockwork - and what kind of a difference that has made for their businesses. Because at Atlex we place great emphasis on our customers’ feedback. We have had excellent testimonials regarding our high quality, innovative products, attention to detail, close working with customers during the important design phase, and warranty guarantees. We make sure that the end product meets the working needs of our customers and provides the economic long-term benefits and productivity improvements. “Our new Atlex cattleyards have cut labour costs by 50%” "What more could I ask, the last truck driver loaded his B Double Truck in 15 minutes" “The experience of Atlex is invaluable.... to draft 600 sheep is now at least an hour
quicker” “Working sheep is now a one man job compared to a two man job previously... the sheepyards
are a lot safer for the dogs jumping over” The benefit of having an on property design was the input of someone with experience
in yard design… The design makes the sheepyards safer & more workable” "Our new Atlex cattleyards are at least twice as quick and much safer" "Atlex's service is top shelf" “The yards are fantastic! The best money we have ever spent. We were just so impressed
at how quick it was to get our new sheepyards marked out and up and running….We’d
have to say four days is pretty good!” "Working in our new Atlex Stockyards is like being on a holiday. They are so luxurious
compared with our old ones. Our new yards give us the luxury of controlling the beasts
instead of them controlling you! We spent the extra for a quality product because we wanted
longevity, strength and durability. We are in for the long haul. That’s why we chose
Atlex Stockyards!” “Bill used the new yards by himself… the sheep ran like a dream. It now
means I do not have to work in the yard any more. “The double working race is phenomenal. We can drench 600 head in less than an
hour.” “I would never have another set of yards without an Adjustable Tapered Drafting
Race, and the Hawker Gates are fantastic. They make Atlex yards so different.” “Wonderful, absolutely terrific! Cut our drafting time by half. Saved a divorce!
We draft 2,500 dry ewes and wethers in two hours. Feral goats go easily through the draft
too.” “Each time we use them (Sheepyards) I am so grateful that we ‘bit the bullet’ and
purchased them even though the economic times are hard. I only wish we had done it sooner. They
have saved us countless hours already.” “When I spoke with Atlex, the design was right and materials were good too. We
had good input and back up from Atlex…. I guess I was investing in their expertise
in this area.” “In the past I’d need not only a couple of dogs, but extra labour, to do some jobs
in the yards. Now, I can do most things by myself with just a dog or two. I run mobs of 300 ewes
or wethers through the yards and I’ve found the Adjustable Tapered Drafting Race is very
handy, particularly when drafting ewes and lambs, as it brings them down to a single file….
It saves using the knees to block.” “We run about 350 sheep through the yards at a time and the Atlex yards certainly
minimise the manpower. We can get the job done with a couple of dogs and someone to operate
the drafting race. I used their expertise and advice on the design of the yards. I’ve
got no regrets with my Atlex yards.” “Ian Crafter was very obliging. We had direct input into the redesign of our yards.
The Adjustable Tapered Drafting Race has worked better than our old set-up, as only one
sheep presents itself at a time.” “The Adjustable Tapered Drafting Race is a good idea, especially if you run different
sized sheep as you can alter the size (taper on drafting race) to allow only one sheep wide.
The yard design has reduced the time taken to draft by 200% and we can now draft with only one
person whereas before that would have been impossible.” “In four years the yards have had constant use and they are the same as the day
they were put up. They cause no stress to the operator or the cattle. Recently we had a
Cattlecare Accreditation Day and the auditor could not fault the yards. It is so important
for cattleyards to be bruise-free from a marketing point of view. We are running over 1,100
cows and with our new design, we can work up to 250 cows and calves in a day. We have doubled
our throughput and cut a third of our labour.” Wish you could say the same?CLICK
