Roam Technology & BB ZIX – Livestock Solutions

A growing threat from emerging and endemic diseases to livestock, coupled with targets to reduce antibiotic use, has led to the integration of a leading biosecurity and animal health firm into Roam Technology.

We’ve recently integrated Biocidas Biodegradables Zix (BBZix), a Spanish specialist in biosecurity and livestock nutritional performance solutions, into our business. This strategic move creates a broader range of biodegradable hygiene and nutritional solutions to safeguard animal health and productivity. By combining expertise and innovation, the integration enables Roam Technology to deliver a more comprehensive, science-driven approach to disease prevention. This lead to the creation of our new business line “Livestock Solutions”, with Zix as brand name.

This integration strengthens our ability to offer farmers a toolkit to protect their animals and businesses. Our growing range of state of the art cleaning, disinfectant, and performance solutions, backed by a large veterinary team and expert field force, means we are well-positioned to help livestock farmers tackle disease risks more effectively, supporting farm resilience and productivity.

Roam Technology experts in biosecurity

The importance of biosecurity

Health issues and diseases can decrease livestock production efficiency by more than 20%. In the EU, for example, stringent measures are enforced such as complete emptying of the farm, installing a protection zone and a surveillance zone with restricted movement, and thorough cleaning and disinfection of the premises, vehicles and materials. These biosecurity measures must be focused on preventing the entry of the virus into our farm and, if the virus enters the facilities, limit its spread within or outside the facilities.

A good biosecurity program is an effective way to reduce the risk of a disease outbreak and the spread of a contagious disease from animal to animal, and even from animals to humans (so called zoonoses). It’s a crucial part in keeping a farm economically viable.

Prevention is better than cure.

A growing sector

Although in most developed countries the demand of meat and other animal products has slightly decreased, the worldwide demand is still growing. Due to population growth, urbanisation and increasing prosperity, animal products become more needed and demand is expected to rise even more in the coming decades.

This continuous growth process will lead to more technological innovations, upscaling of farms and a need for increase in productivity. Our worldwide presence enables us to provide our solutions to your farm, tailor-made to your specific needs, up-to-date with the latest insights and technologies.
