Invest in superior livestock care with the JFC Polyethylene Footbath. Designed specifically for the treatment and prevention of common hoof problems in sheep and cattle, these footbaths are an essential component of a proactive farm health management system, helping you reduce lameness and increase herd productivity.
Key Features & Health Benefits
JFC Footbaths combine a simple yet highly effective design with rugged polyethylene construction, ensuring long-term performance in demanding farm environments.
- Durable Polyethylene Construction: Manufactured from tough, impact-resistant, medium-density polyethylene, the footbath is built to withstand heavy farm use and livestock traffic. It will not corrode or rust and is chemically resistant to all common hoof care solutions.
- Optimum Treatment Depth: The specific dimensions and depth ensure the hoof is fully immersed in the treatment solution, maximising contact time and therapeutic effectiveness for better results.
- Safety Ribs/Baffles (Select Models): Some models feature internal ribs or baffles that encourage animals to slow down, ensuring the hoof rests in the solution for the required duration, while also helping to separate the claws for deeper penetration of the treatment.
- Non-Spill Profile: The lipped edges help contain the solution, reducing waste and maintaining a cleaner surrounding area, even when the animals step in and out quickly.
- Lightweight and Portable: Despite their robustness, JFC footbaths are easy to manoeuvre, allowing you to position them strategically in raceways, milking parlour exits, or shed doorways for maximum usage.
- Easy to Clean: The smooth, non-porous surface makes cleaning quick and simple, promoting better hygiene between treatments.
