EuroTier 2010 - Silver medal winner: Desomtec FL-des Allround
Product name: Desomtec FL-des Allround
AGRAVIS Raiffeisen AG, Münster, Germany, 14-B30 und Kesla Pharma Wolfen GmbH, Wolfen, Germany, 16-L04(joint development)
The award-winning disinfectant is a dual-component preparation with which resistant stages of bacteria, micobacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites can be inactivated and/or killed in a single operation. The agents listed so far by the DVG (Deutsche Veterinärmedizinische Gesellschaft – German Veterinary Medical Society) only have bactericidal, fungicidal, or virucidal effects against parasite resistant stages. In addition, the DVG list contains preparations with an antiparasitic effect that have limited effectiveness against bacteria and/or viruses. The combination of an unrestricted bactericidal, fungicidal and virucidal effective component with a second component that satisfies the performance criteria of the DVG represents a substantial improvement by covering a broader action spectrum. Applying such a broadly effective disinfectant makes it possible to save both costs and labour in practical farming.

EuroTier 2010 - Silver medal winner: CreAmino
Product name:CreAmino®
Evonik Degussa GmbH, Hanau-Wolfgang, Germany, 15-B22
CreAmino is a new feed additive that has been licensed in the EU since 2009. It is a new guanidinoacetic acid, a precursor of creatine that is formed naturally in metabolism and that plays a key role in energy metabolism, especially in muscles. The product helps to stabilise and/or improve the zootechnical performance, above all of intensively growing broilers, whose feed does not contain any components of animal provenance. The additive stabilises the supply situation of the animals.
This is an innovative development of a feed additive in context with breeding progress as regards genetic performance potential on the one hand and changes in feed markets on the other (e.g. availability of fishmeal).

EuroTier 2010 - Silver medal winner: Hygitrix
Product name: hygitrix
MENNO CHEMIE-VERTRIEB GMBH, Norderstedt, Germany, 15-B23
The award-winning system serves to measure, monitor and document cleaning and disinfecting operations. It can be used on both a mobile and a stationary basis. The system represents an essential improvement in surveillance and documentation of cleaning and disinfecting operations. The combination of the individual components represents an innovative and substantial further development. Using the system makes it possible to optimise the deployment of disinfectants and water, resulting in cost savings too. The system also has a positive effect on the quality of cleaning and disinfecting and on work performance.

EuroTier 2010 - Silver medal winners: MIX -Mobile Information Xtraction
Product name: MIX - Mobile Information Xtraction
WEDA - Dammann & Westerkamp GmbH, Lutten, Germany, 12-B47
The MIX - Mobile Information Xtraction method allows simple sourcing of technical and service-relevant information via internet-capable mobile phones or smartphones.
Information sites filed in the web are made available via QR (= quick response) codes. With this application, farmers or technicians can obtain information on the machine or implement, on service, on fault elimination or on spare part procurement very quickly. This allows broad, target-oriented provision of information via the Internet. The application opens up a broad field of potential uses.
