- Product Highlights
Feed hygiene is one of the most important aspects in the current animal production industry. For this purpose, ITPSA has developed SALCAP product range consisting of special formulations of organic acids, mainly formic and propionic acid combined with some of their specific salts. These blends have antibacterial properties with synergistic effect in the treatment of raw materials and ensuring its sanitization. Furthermore, the combination with acetic and lactic acid allows SALCAP range products to control intestinal imbalances, to improve productive parameters and to replace antibiotic growth promoters. SALCAP is also indicated for sanitization of facilities preventing the formation of reservoirs of enterobacteria in the machinery.
- Benefits
- High efficacy against Salmonella and other enterobacteria due to its bactericide effect
- Improves animal sanitary status
- Reduces number of contaminated carcasses in the slaughterhouse and the presence of Salmonella positive eggs
- Improves production performance parameters
- Long lasting action
- Lessen handling problems originated by the strong smell and irritation in the feed industry
- Optimal dispersion in mixing processes
Applications & Uses
- Markets
- Applications
- Dosage
The recommended dosage depends on the characteristics of the raw material and on the environmental conditions (temperature and humidity), as well as on the applied variety of SALCAP:
- Compound feed: 2 - 6 Kg/Mt
- Raw materials of animal origin: 2 - 9 Kg/Mt
- Disinfection of facilities: 8 -10 Kg/Mt
