laktos dairy facility
We are proud to present our modern, fast-growing dairy production facility, operating at two independent sites in Krasna Hora nad Vltavou, located in the heart of the unspoilt nature of Southern Bohemia. Every day, we collect high-quality milk from local farmers, along with other ingredients, to deliver products on time with outstanding freshness and consistently high quality for consumer markets.
The dairy facility primarily serves the Czech and Slovak markets. The product portfolio is complemented by goods from reputable European food producers, processed under strict quality control criteria and guaranteed brand standards. Sales are conducted mainly through retail chains in the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Key customers include Penny Market, Lidl, Kaufland, Makro, Globus, COOP and Norma. An important part of sales is also directed to independent local retailers and the gastronomy segment.
Thanks to its own dairy production facility, LAKTOS ranks among the most significant suppliers of dairy commodities on the Czech market, including butter, Edam, Emmental and curd. Distribution and storage are ensured by the logistics company Nagel Czech Republic.
As a traditional and established dairy producer, LAKTOS complies with all mandatory certifications. We consistently go beyond standard requirements to deliver added value to our customers. Our product quality has been recognised with the KlasA quality label.
Between 2021 and 2022, several projects were implemented to modernise LAKTOS production facilities.
Modernization of Krasna Hora IV dairy plant
The project included the purchase and installation of technological equipment at both LAKTOS sites in Krasna Hora nad Vltavou, Pribram district. At the dairy facility located at No. 279, a new line for sliced cheese production and packaging was installed, along with whey pre-purification equipment, weighing scales, labelling and marking systems, laboratory equipment, storage solutions, hygiene equipment, security camera systems and stainless steel handling carts.
On Plot No. 189/36, adjacent to the dairy plant, a water treatment line was installed, along with storage racks, chemical storage tanks, pallet handling equipment and a security camera system. At the smelter site located at No. 125 on the town square, stainless steel production equipment, marking devices, storage racks, palletising trolleys and cooling technology were installed. Building modifications of storage areas were also completed, including upgrades to the company shop, where a new refrigerated display case was added.
Modernization of processing operations
This project focused on upgrading processing equipment at both company sites. At the dairy facility (No. 279), new equipment was installed for automatic vehicle cleaning, milk preheating, vacuum packaging, chemical storage, frozen storage, pallet handling, weighing, laboratory operations and production processes. At the smelter site (No. 125), hygiene equipment, frozen storage and pallet handling equipment were added. Further upgrades included partial modernisation of the company shop and installation of a chemical storage container near the dairy plant.
The projects were co-financed by EU financial support. All equipment was delivered in accordance with supply contracts and complies with applicable standards, legislation and certification requirements. Modern technological solutions were used to ensure full compliance with hygiene, veterinary and fire safety regulations.
