You care for your animals every day. Hygienically clean drinking water is part of that care. membraclean 'Tierisch Gut' drinking water treatment disinfects the water, prevents germ and algae growth and gradually breaks down biofilm in the drinking troughs, tanks and pipes being treated.

More than rinsing the bowl

Feed residues, contamination from the surroundings and warmth affect drinking water quality. Biofilms form on damp internal surfaces. In larger installations, this affects not only the visible drinking trough but also storage containers and drinking water lines.

With 'Tierisch Gut', you treat the water together with the containers and pipes through which it flows. Free-floating microorganisms are killed quickly. Existing biofilm is gradually broken down. Regular use maintains water hygiene between individual cleaning sessions.

For pets and livestock

'Tierisch Gut' is suitable for dogs, cats, rodents and birds, including parrots. Horses, cattle, sheep, goats, chickens, geese and other livestock are also among the described applications.

You can use the same product range in your home, when keeping horses and in agricultural businesses. Choose the container size and dosing method according to the volume of water and the layout of your drinking system.

From water bowls to storage tanks

For small volumes of water, add the required quantity directly to the bowl, drinking dish or container. For larger supplies, dose the product into a drinking water tank or an IBC container intended for drinking water.

This treats the water where you make it available to your animals. It is practical when you supply several drinking points or store water for a longer period.

Automatic addition in livestock and drinking systems

For regularly larger water volumes, a mechanical or electric dosing pump injects the product into the drinking water pipe system. The amount added is adjusted to the volume of water actually flowing through.

This reduces manual dosing work and continuously includes newly arriving water. We advise you on using 'Tierisch Gut' in your existing or planned installation.

Water hygiene as part of good animal care

Clean water supports your animals' regular care. It is important for health, wellbeing and livestock performance. With 'Tierisch Gut', you reduce microbial contamination and treat the biofilms from which microorganisms can repeatedly enter the water.

The formulation contains no silver or silver ions. Its active substance is active chlorine released from hypochlorous acid. The product is made in Germany and registered for product type PT 5.

The right container size for your animals

Handy bottles are suitable for pets and smaller drinking systems. Larger containers and multipacks make it easier to supply livestock installations and businesses. For continuous use at 2 ml per litre of drinking water, a 1 litre bottle treats up to 500 litres.

Cleaning and restoring drinking troughs, tanks and pipework requires a separate quantity of product. You will find the corresponding treatment capacities with each item in the shop.
