The powder for a healthy cowshed environment

Clean, dry, and comfortable surroundings are very important to the healthcare and well-being of calves and dairy cows. Special attention should be paid to their beddings. The mixture of manure and milk in the stalls provides an excellent environment for bacteria.

Thanks to BoxClean® the beddings are always dry and free of pathogenic microorganisms.
 
ADVANTAGES:
BoxClean® kills bacteria and reduces the risk of infections.
BoxClean® reduces the creation of ammonia (less smell!).
BoxClean® inhibits the growth of fly larvae and thus helps to reduce the number of flies.
BoxClean® absorbs moisture and provides animals with a dry and clean environment, free of pathogenic microorganisms.
BoxClean® is easy to use and safe for people, animals and the environment.
BoxClean® has a neutral pH-value so it does not irritate the skin.
BoxClean® does not harden or clump together; not even after a long period of storage.

BoxClean® can be used in cowsheds (e.g. on slotted floors), beddings, stalls, calving areas and calf stalls, stables, goat sheds, and pigsties.
