Good hygiene starts with water and the environment
Animal husbandry and veterinary operations place high demands on both water quality and hygiene. Drinking water, equipment, surfaces, and common areas can all affect the conditions for safe and efficient operations.
Furthermore, stables, veterinary clinics, and other animal environments often contain organic material, moisture, and many contact surfaces. In aquaculture, the water environment itself becomes a central part of the operation.
FreeBact® makes it possible to work with both water and hygienic surfaces, with solutions that can be adapted to the needs of the operation.
Common challenges in animal husbandry and veterinary practice
Water pipes, drinking water containers, and water bowls can develop deposits and biofilm over time. In environments where many animals live together, equipment, work surfaces, and other contact surfaces can also contribute to the spread of microorganisms.
Veterinary operations also involve repeated contact between animals, people, tools, and treatment surfaces. In aquaculture, water quality and hygiene must be managed without placing unnecessary strain on the animals or the system.
The challenge, therefore, is to address the entire hygiene chain, from the water the animals drink to the surfaces and systems used every day.
How FreeBact® helps
FreeBact® can be used for the disinfection of drinking water and treatment of water systems, as well as for the hygienic treatment of surfaces and equipment.
FreeBact® Water can be used to treat water and counteract microbiological problems in water environments. For businesses with continuous needs, FreeBact® Dosage can be used for automated dosing in water systems.
FreeBact® Surface is used for surfaces and equipment where good hygiene needs to be maintained without alcohol or chlorine.
Typical applications

Water is part of the environment
In many operations, water is more than just drinking water. It circulates through pipes, containers, and technical systems and can be a direct part of the animals' environment.
In aquaculture, for example, monitoring water quality and microbiological load becomes particularly important. Even in traditional animal husbandry, good water hygiene can help reduce recurring problems in pipes and drinking systems.
With the right treatment strategy, FreeBact® can be used for both targeted interventions and continuous water hygiene.
