Research is in our DNA

At DeLaval, research is central to advancing the dairy industry. For over 140 years, we've driven innovation and sustainability, continuously improving our products and solutions. Research shapes the future of dairy farming, enhancing animal welfare, production efficiency, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

We collaborate with public research institutions and universities to develop sustainable precision dairy farming solutions, with Hamra Farm in Sweden as our R&D hub.

Research is the cornerstone of DeLaval, enabling us to meet farmers' needs and shape the future of dairy farming for generations to come.

To further our dedication to research, we established the Gustaf de Laval Fund to support pioneering research in dairy farming.

Gustaf de Laval Fund

The Gustaf de Laval Fund invites young scientists to contribute to the future of dairy with their research. Understanding farmers' needs and adapting solutions to their goals is essential for sustainability. Our evidence-based procedures help farmers improve animal welfare and achieve herd goals. Through our dedication to research, we drive innovation, sustainability, and profitability for dairy farms.

Our Scientific Committee facilitates and evaluates research collaborations between DeLaval and external partners, advising on research partners, study design, intellectual property, and scientific publications.
