ADM’s litter conditioner solution
Moisture is a problematic which has to be taken into consideration. Humid condition is not only uncomfortable for the animal, but also provides ideal environments for microbial growth. Increased bacterial pressure and ammonia production can cause damages and lead to performances and economic losses.
1.In swine production, thanks to sow genetic improvement, we observe more and more large litters. However, large litter also leads to a higher number of smaller piglets at birth. These piglets are more sensitive to thermal stress take a longer time to access colostrum.
Consequently, they are weaker and have a higher risk to be crushed. Thus it is important to make them dry as soon as possible at birth to ensure quicker access to colostrum and strengthen their vitality.
2. In poultry production, footpad lesions and breast blisters are more and more a concern. These lesions are usually caused by wet litter conditions and affect general health status, productive parameters, carcass quality, and welfare. It is important to maintain good litter conditions in order to provide comfort to chickens to achieve the best performance and avoid economic losses.
3. For ruminants, poor hygiene conditions and moisture in the bedding will also lead to foot lesions and lameness. Moreover, infections can occur, such as mastitis one of the biggest concerns for dairy and beef production. By the absorptive capabilities of PURlite the bedding will be drier, keeping the environment safe and comfortable to maximize animal performances, animal welfare and farm management.
PURlite is a blend of vegetal and mineral raw materials with absorbent, cleaning and non-irritating properties.
Perfectly suitable for the environmental management of animals and their bedding thanks to its powerful drying and odor binding effects. PURlite can be used in many species.
PURlite in swine production
PURlite gives more chances to piglets at birth and improves their Average Daily Gain (ADG)
- STRENGTHENS vitality of weak piglets at birth and allows a faster access to colostrum.
- IMPROVES the quality of the litter by powerful drying and odor-binding effects (Ammonia)
- DOES NOT IRRITATE the skin of piglets and operators.
- HELPS to fully express genetic potential without cost overloads.
PURlite In poultry production
- REDUCES litter humidity.
- REDUCES ammonia emissions and odor thanks to binding effects.
- PREVENTS breasts blisters and foot pad lesions due to wet litter.
- DOES NOT IRRITATE the animal skin nor the operator.
- IMPROVES animal welfare and performances.
PURlite in ruminant production
PURlite protects newborn and adult animals
- REDUCES risks of mastitis and lameness by improving environmental conditions
