Animal care and well-being are among Solvay’s growing priorities. As such, Solvay has developed Bi-Protec®, an innovative product based on sodium bicarbonate and shapeless precipitated silica to be used in organic farming with the aim to improve poultry hygiene.
Breeders have to constantly adjust their animals' feeds to adapt to changing climatic and biological conditions. Carefully balanced feeding is essential to both profitability and the quality of the end product.
The breeding and rearing of livestock is essential to meet world requirements for food. Proxitane® AHC can be used for a variety of applications ranging from routine animal house disinfection to the disinfection of animal drinking water. It is considered to be one of the most relevant products in animal health care.
Disinfection treatment is needed for disease control in a number of areas in the finfish and shellfish industries. Infections can also spread via fish farm equipment and surfaces and during fish processing. Solvay products such as hydrogen peroxide and peracetic acid can be used for disinfection therefore preventing infections.
