Lhoist UK sanitisation product launched
A lime-based sanitisation product, Saniblanc® D, manufactured by Lhoist UK, has been launched into the pig market following the approval of the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
The product can be used in the fight against salmonella and many other bacterial infections, including Coccodiosis and Brachyspira.
Saniblanc® D is a dry, disinfectant powder designed for disinfection for both indoor and outdoor applications.
It is the first exterior disinfectant solution which improves ground quality at the same time as it disinfects and is extremely cost effective.
The manufacturers claim that regular use of Saniblanc® D has shown to be an effective method of maintaining hygiene standards in both indoors and outdoors, areas difficult to keep clean and pathogen free.
Used as part of the farmer's regular hygiene program it has the ability kill infections and provide defence against re-infection.
