Swine

Todays environment poses many challenges to the modern pig farmer. Whether these are produced inside or outside the disease risk should not be underestimated. Biosecurity and hygiene are important to maintain high welfare standards in all areas of pig production.

Biosecurity is a management process taken by pig businesses to prevent the transmission of infectious diseases, both within a farm and from one farm to another, or from elsewhere, e.g. the slaughter house. Reducing the spread of disease will help to maintain the health of the farm, reduce the costs of disease and maintain productivity.

African Swine Fever (ASF) can be considered one of the most feared epidemic diseases of pig production, the others being Swine Vesicular Disease (SVD), Porcine Epidemic Diarrhoea virus (PEDv) and Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD). Ensuring good biosecurity throughout the entire supply chain is the first line of defence against these exotic and emerging diseases.

Omniclean™ and Omnicide™ are tested and proven products against these diseases to ensure good and effective cleaning and disinfection that works.
