Poultry farmers flock to Calor

Reliable, consistent heat for the finest growth and laying conditions

A reliable power supply is essential to all businesses. But for poultry farmers it can literally be a matter of life and death as birds need consistent levels of heat to thrive – especially during the rearing season.

LPG is perfect for poultry

Clean and efficient burning

LPG produces 20% lower carbon emissions than any other fossil fuel. *

Why choose Calor?

Why Calor is an           eggcellent choice

Having invested in Europe’s largest LPG storage facilities and the UK’s largest LPG tanker fleet, Calor will ensure your gas supply is always there when you need it.
