ME International Installation GmbH developed in cooperation with Mrs. Melanie Frisch from Biochem mbH a special spray lance for the application of “HatchGel SP”

Me International - Küken

In 2018 Biochem expanded its range of animal nutrition products with the introduction of the new HatchGel SP for modern poultry breeds. According to Biochem, the gel solution with its composition not only serves as an application medium, but also combines nutritional value, prebiotic effect, vaccine protection and water stabilisation or colour effect. The HatchGel SP can be used as a drop application or on the starter food. It is suitable as a carrier for orally absorbed substances such as probiotics.

Quote from Ms Frisch, Product Manager for Food Supplements at Biochem: “HatchGel SP not only supports the effectiveness of probiotics and other intestinal active ingredients, but also strengthens the immune system. With this high-quality carrier solution for incubation applications, your herd is always one step ahead of the competition”.

To ensure that the gel is applied as evenly as possible to the chicks, ME International together with Mrs Frisch designed a spray lance that can be easily attached to the Maruyama back sprayer. The lance should be flexibly adapted to the requirements of the respective locations, taking into account user-friendliness and a high-quality construction. In cooperation with regional suppliers, prototypes were initially produced which, after careful practical tests with the Maruyama back sprayer, finally resulted in a solution suitable for series production.

The Maruyama Back Sprayer guaranteed a constant pressure ratio during spraying, which is a considerable advantage especially for the application of gel. In the tests, devices with a spray lance were used, but the principle can also be used without problems with 2 lances.The developed lance is also compatible with other spraying devices, we will be happy to advise you personally if required.
