On Saturday the 16^th of January, 2016 another Rondeel^® stable will be opened in The Netherlands. At Bokkerijweg 1 in Vaassen, Rondeel BV and owner Dik Verbeek organise an Open Day for everybody interested in chickens.

Rondeel^® is designed for the sustainable production of consumption eggs. The Rondeel^® concept is developed by Vencomatic Group in collaboration with the University of Wageningen and the Animal Protection Service. Chickens find all they need in this round stable according to researchers and consumers. Rondeel provides various possibilities for the chickens to forage and take a dust-bath, to eat, drink and lay their egg in a safe and secure place while they can find their privacy in the night quarters.  

On Saturday January the 16^th of 2016 there will be an official opening between 10h00 and 11h00 for invited quests. Together with all partners who worked at the realisation of Rondeel^® Vaassen, Dik and his family will open his new stable. After the official opening, everybody is welcome to have a look inside. At the opening there will be no chickens yet, so that visitors can go on expedition through the stable as a chicken. Many different Rondeel snacks will be provided and also children can find their entertainment.

The possibilities and space provided for chickens in the Rondeel led to Rondeel^® receiving three stars of the Animal Welfare Quality Mark for a better life, from the Animal Protection service. Three stars is the maximum to be received for Animal Welfare friendly food production. Rondeel^® eggs are packed  with 7 in a round box made of bio-based and bio-degradable packaging. Hereby Rondeel^® lowers its carbon foot print. Based on this concept, Rondeel^® received the Environment Quality Mark (Milieukeur). Rondeel^® eggs are the first eggs to receive these two marks, which are locally available, and nationally available at Albert Heijn.

This Open Day is organized to provide more information about the concept Rondeel^®, its products, and the new stable with several new features designed by the Vencomatic Group.
