The future of dairy farming starts here
We work with dairy farmers around the world to develop practical solutions for milking, feeding, housing and herd management – designed to support strong farm performance over time.
DeLaval develops solutions shaped by the realities of dairy farming
Founded in Sweden in 1883, DeLaval has supported dairy farms for more than 140 years. Our global headquarters remain in Tumba, just south of Stockholm, where long-term strategy, research, and development are anchored.
Our focus has always been the same: helping dairy farms run reliably, day after day.

Who we are
DeLaval exists to support farmers producing milk.
We deliver complete dairy farming solutions for dairy cows, as well as sheep and goats, supporting the full range of daily work on a dairy farm.
Our solutions include:
- Milking solutions, including automatic milking solutions such as the DeLaval VMS™ portfolio, as well as conventional milking parlours for different herd sizes and farm setups
- Feeding, housing, cleaning, cooling, and milk handling solutions
- Digital solutions that support daily herd monitoring and farm decisions
On a dairy farm, nothing happens in isolation. What changes in one area affects the rest. That’s why our solutions are designed to work together, supporting stable routines and early signals that make daily decisions easier and more predictable.
Where dairy farming meets smarter systems – we're engineering the future.

Our purpose
Our vision is to make sustainable food production possible.
We support farmers in producing milk efficiently and responsibly, strengthening productivity while safeguarding animal welfare and helping farms remain viable for the long term.
Product leadership built around what matters most
Every dairy farm depends on five essentials: milking, feeding, housing, health, and reproduction.
These are the areas where performance is built, and where pressure increases as herds grow larger, labour becomes harder to find, and expectations around sustainability and animal welfare rise.
We focus on strengthening these essentials as a connected system, helping farms improve performance without adding unnecessary complexity.
Proven where it counts
Hamra Farm, DeLaval’s own commercial dairy farm next to our global headquarters in Tumba, plays a central role in development and validation.
Operating first and foremost as a working dairy, it provides a direct link between everyday farm life and solution development, ensuring new solutions are shaped by real conditions, not theory.
