Integrity Builders & Supply Inc. in New London has worked hard to set industry standards in the livestock industry since 2009.
The business is proficient in all aspects of the building process, specializing in hog buildings.
Their specialists cover a wide array of areas, from concrete work to installing livestock equipment. They specialize in a number of different livestock buildings, from hog confinements, large sow units, cattle barns, post frame buildings, and commercial construction, to name a few.
They assist farmers, integrators, investors, and veterinarians with questions on building components, parts, service, new constriction, and barn remodel options to increase return on investment.
Hog confinements are lasting much longer these days as long as they are maintained. Integrity Builders and Supply can assist in that process.
“As long as you maintain your barns, they keep lasting,” Rachel Fishback, who covers marketing and sales, said. “There are certain things that will need to be replaced, as things get worn out over the years. We will also go in and remodel existing hog buildings. We can pull out the gating or take out feeders and waterers. We can also replace the control panels, which are becoming more and more advanced.”
One of the strict standards Integrity Builders stands by is “delivering exceptional quality and outstanding customer service in the livestock industry.”
Numerous pork producers have called upon them for their building skills.
Independent pork producers, as well as integrators such as JBS USA Pork, TriOak Foods, The Maschhoffs, JWV, Brenneman Pork and Eichelberger Farms.
Along with covering the state of Iowa, they also cover several other states Midwest.
“With just new construction and our service team, we cover Iowa, Illinois, and Missouri,” Fishback said. “We also branch out into Wisconsin, Minnesota, Indiana, and into Nebraska. We definitely go to work in those other areas; it just depends if the integrator or farmer needs us. We’re more than willing to help.”
For post-construction and maintaining a long-lasting building, Integrity has a YouTube channel that offers tips and advice on treating and preserving the structures.
For Fishback, her time with Integrity Builders has helped her better understand the pork industry as a whole.
“I have really learned a lot about livestock buildings and the pork industry, despite the fact that I own a hog building,” she said. “It’s so fascinating to me to see the technology being used in these hog buildings. They strive the pork industry has made in the past thirty, forty, fifty years. Our team, they’re just very knowledgeable professionals in this industry.”
