Livestock farms face a constant threat of pathogens such as Salmonella spp.  and Streptococcus spp. To prevent outbreaks of these diseases on the farm, the implementation of a validated disinfection protocol is crucial. However, in order to be able to perform an effective disinfection procedure, the use of a good cleaning detergent first is vital for the success of the biosecurity program. To deal with surfaces with heavy soiling, foam cleaners of top quality are required.

Our solution

Roam Eco Power is a recently developed eco-friendly foam cleaner ideally suited for removing heavy soilings on floors, walls and ceilings in livestock farms. To demonstrate the superior quality and effectiveness of Roam Eco Power, a 2% dilution was applied to the surfaces of the pens, while simultaneously testing two 2% dilutions of competing foam cleaners. Each pen is made up out of 8 panels. The solutions were applied using a  disinfectant and detergent trolley with a fixed dosing valve. Roam Eco Power and the competing foam cleaners remained on the surfaces for 30 minutes before being rinsed away with water.
