The device provides comfort and guarantees proper hygiene in poultry, cattle and other livestock.
DIABOR is a natural mixture of kieselguhr (diatomaceous earth) and clay minerals based on silicon dioxide and phyllosilicates designed for application in an environment where livestock is kept. For poultry breeding, DIABOR should be applied as a part of bedding as well as an ash layer filling. It facilitates maintaining proper breeding hygiene and a dry floor or bedding. Given the natural characteristics of the raw material, DIABOR helps to prevent the occurrence of chicken mites in poultry breeding.
