MS AutoHoffClean
The product MS AutoHoffClean associates a footbath mattress with a cleansing and disinfectant product. The mattress is positioned at the milking parlour exit and a pump maintains fluid pressure.
The cleansing/disinfecting product only escapes from the mattress under the weight of the passing cow’s feet, bathing all the cow’s digits.
The upper surface of the mattress does not reabsorb the cleaner/disinfectant. It is a wholly-new approach to treating digital dermatitis (Mortellaro’s disease) in milk cattle by an automatic treatment of digits and the disinfection of the ground.
The product features: reduced lameness.
