Olmix Group to launch SeaBiota TM at SPACE 2019

SeaBiota^TM protects the digestive tract through selected algae extracts (MSP^®_MUCIN), which reinforce the protective intestinal mucus layer and thanks to specific zinc from a unique Olmix’s technological process.

The challenge of post-weaning period in piglet’s life

Weaning is the most stressful moment in piglet’s life, which has a negative impact in animals’ health and also several consequences in the intestinal morphology of pigs. These modifications may also lead to diverse digestives troubles and to the overuse of antibiotics. Thanks to the action of Olmix Group’s specific algae extracts, MSP^®_MUCIN, SeaBiota^TM is able to reduce those digestive disorders and decrease the need of medication.

The results of a field study carried out in 13 French farms selected for their recurrent digestive troubles episodes, showed with more than 75 batches that using SeaBiotaTM allows the optimisation of intestinal welfare and thus the management of digestive troubles while decreasing the supply of antibiotics in 75% of the cases. In addition, a second study demonstrated that SeaBiota^TM can represent a substitute to the classical use of zinc oxide with a dosage adapted to the farm and taking into account the critical periods of piglet’s life.

Thus, SeaBiota^TM proves to be an effective tool for the digestive welfare of weaned piglets and can be used in a context of digestive troubles management for the weaning period.

SeaBiota^TM completes OLMIX digestive welfare range: for optimal results but also as a part of an antibiotic free program, it can be used in association with Seagut® Paste and Seagut® Powder to face digestive troubles before weaning.
