An economical, ecological and safe solution
Recycled manure bedding offers many benefits:
- Eliminates the need to use traditional bedding (straw, sand and wood shavings).
- Reduces the on-farm storage.
- Reduces the total volume of manure to store, mix and spread.
- Gives a second life to fiber not digested by the cow.
An overview of the separation cycle
- Manure collection
- Manure separation
- Separated fibers - 35-38% DM
- Pasteurization
- Recycled bedding - 38-42% DM
- Healthy and happy cows
For healthy and safe bedding
Pasteurization process
- The fiber enters the Xpress PS and passes through a carefully controlled aerobic process.
- The bedding is mixed and heated to a temperature of 65°C / 149°F to 70°C / 158°F for at least 60 minutes to achieve true pasteurization.
- In addition to the reduction or elimination of pathogens through pasteurization, the bedding exiting the Xpress PS is also now drier.
Easily store your recycled bedding
Upon exiting the pasteurizer, the recycled bedding can be stored in a Bedding Box. This is the perfect choice for automated distribution system.
