Resipro® Foam – innovative detergent for livestock farms

As globalization and farm sizes increase, biosecurity has become more critical than ever in livestock farming. Contagious diseases, parasites, and infections not only harm animal welfare but also impose significant costs on producers and pose risks to society. Effective cleaning and pathogen control are essential in managing animal diseases and maintaining farm biosecurity.

Biosecurity challenges in modern livestock farming

Over 300 million livestock animals are raised annually in the EU, highlighting the scale and importance of farm hygiene (EFSA, 2023). According to the European Commission, 60% of all infectious diseases in humans originate from animals. Good hygiene in livestock environments plays a vital role in preventing disease transmission, safeguarding food safety, and supporting animal wellbeing. This aligns with the One Health concept, which emphasizes the deep interconnection between human, animal, and environmental health.

Science-driven solutions for livestock hygiene

Hankkija FFI is committed to creating practical, science-based solutions that promote animal welfare, sustainability, and real value for farmers. Resipro® Foam is a resin acid-based cleaning innovation, developed through years of collaborative research with Queen’s University Belfast and the Belgian research institute Poulpharm.

What is Resipro® Foam  and how it works?

Resipro® Foam  is a powerful alkaline cleaner that produces a rich, long-lasting foam. It efficiently removes dirt, leaving surfaces visibly clean and supporting improved hygiene standards in livestock facilities. The product enables thorough cleaning even in high-traffic areas such as walkways and congested areas of the farm, which are often difficult to fully empty of the presence of animals.

Safe for Humans, Animals, and the Environment

In Resipro® Foam, safety meets performance. Since the same individuals often perform cleaning tasks repeatedly, the product was designed to be safe for humans, animals, and the environment. It is biodegradable, non-toxic, and non-corrosive, making it gentle on equipment and safe to use even when animals are present.

Resipro® Foam  is produced using natural Finnish raw materials, in line with circular economy principles. Its primary ingredient is distilled tall oil, a by-product of the Finnish pulp industry. Resipro® Foam even works effectively with cold water, helping to lower both energy and water consumption on farms — making Resipro® Foam  a sustainable and responsible choice.

Tested and trusted by professionals

Importantly, Resipro® Foam  has been tested and evaluated by cleaning and hygiene experts in the agricultural sector, who have rated it as an excellent detergent for professional use in livestock farms. With Resipro® Foam , Hankkija continues to lead the way in sustainable, safe, and science-driven hygiene solutions for modern livestock farming.
