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