East Iowa Plastics, Inc. designed Sun Deflectors (Poultry Hoods) in 2003 to help producers address the challenges of keeping broiler houses dark when the sidewall inlets open to allow for ventilation. Even when your inlets are wide open to provide maximum ventilation, our sun deflectors will allow sufficient airflow while effectively reducing light infusion.
This product is made from the finest materials available, using High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) with a Korad Acrylic veneer on the outside surface. It is this acrylic veneer that gives this product its long life, it is nearly indestructible to sunlight and any other weatherablity issues. Korad Acrylic is heavily used in the agricultural implement and trucking industries (cabs and hoods).
Not only will this Sun Deflector last nearly indefinitely, it will also nearly indefinitely look as good as the day you bought it.
Testing by the University of Georgia indicates that East Iowa Plastics' Pakster™
Sun Deflectors (Poultry Hoods) can reduce light infusion by a factor of 300.
We can custom build Sun Deflectors (Poultry Hoods) to meet your unique needs!

These photos were taken by a customer wanting to replace the custom built Sun Deflectors that were placed on his house when it was built, because he did not believe they were blocking out enough light. He snapped some before and after shots for us to compare. Please note that because the ventilation door used is not one of East Iowa Plastics', the cut-out opening is slightly larger than the Sun Deflector, therefore allowing more light to sneak in than if it had fit properly. Even with that difference, the photos reveal a significant reduction in light between the two Sun Delectors.
