Headquartered in Denmark and active across six continents, SANOVO combines solid Danish engineering with a global network of service and production facilities — including sites in the United States, the Netherlands, Italy, and Denmark. The company’s mission is straightforward: turn eggs into valuable business by helping customers achieve higher efficiency, consistent quality, and full food safety.
SANOVO offers complete systems covering every step of the process: from egg packing and grading to breaking and pasteurization, drying, automation, and enzymes. Its solutions are used by both family-owned farms and large international producers who want to run smooth, efficient, and hygienic operations.
Every SANOVO machine is built with hygiene, safety, and usability in mind. Innovations like AI-based crack detection, automated cleaning systems, and digital traceability make it easier to meet today’s demanding food standards while keeping operations efficient and cost-effective.
What truly sets SANOVO apart is the close partnership with its customers. The company works side by side with egg processors, hatcheries, and food manufacturers to design systems that fit their specific needs and future goals. A global Customer Care and Training team provides continuous support — ensuring equipment keeps running smoothly, year after year.
Driven by curiosity and constant improvement, SANOVO continues to invest in automation and digital solutions that help producers stay competitive and ready for tomorrow’s challenges.

Poultry breeding has been part of our activities since 1949, first, within the framework of the Bábolna State Farm, which was established after 1945 on the grounds of the Bábolna Stud Farm founded in 1789. In the late 1960s, when hybridisation also emerged in global poultry breeding, we developed our first breeds under the TETRA brand name.
Thanks to successful and modern breeding methods, by the 1970s our products were already present in more than 50 countries worldwide, and the TETRA name became synonymous with poultry hybrids of high genetic value.
Following the political and economic transition of 1989–1990, the former state farm was transformed into smaller companies. In the early 2000s, after a privatisation process, Bábolna TETRA Poultry Breeding and Marketing Ltd. was established in its current form and has been fully privately owned since than.
In the period that followed, significant investments were made: the company’s real estate assets were modernised, new and up-to-date buildings and a hatchery were constructed, and as a result of successful genetic research, our range of layer breeds expanded. In addition, coloured meat and dual-purpose breeds were also introduced.
While the breeds marketed under the TETRA brand are primarily selected for long-lasting and cost-effective egg production, in recent years we have also developed our ELMA breeds with improved heat tolerance, as well as the COUNTRY layer breeds specialised for alternative production systems.
Our wide and colourful range of breeds enables us to offer tailored solutions to poultry keepers when selecting breeds, taking into account production objectives, market demands, and the applied housing and management technologies.
Our company also operates its own affiliated enterprises providing complementary services, including an accredited laboratory and a logistics company with a specialised vehicle fleet for the road transport of day-old chicks.
We consider continuous communication and professional consultancy with our partners to be of outstanding importance.
Despite the market concentration that has taken place over the past two decades, Bábolna TETRA Ltd. has strengthened its market presence over the last 20 years across four continents, in nearly 60 countries worldwide.
We hope to welcome you soon among our satisfied customers using TETRA breeds.
