S-Carb® for Livestock
As a supplier to the feed industry for more than 25 years, we manufacture S-Carb® - refined sodium sesquicarbonate. S-Carb is a pure, free flowing, white, crystalline product that is nonhydroscopic and less dusty than traditional ruminant buffers. Tronox Alkali is unique in that all aspects of our S-Carb production are vertically integrated at our Green River facility. We are committed to producing only pure and proven products for the animal feed industry.
Dairy Usage: S-Carb is used as a buffer to maintain rumen pH, alleviate butterfat depression due to low fiber diets, and aid fiber digestibility.
Poultry Usage: In broiler and turkey diets, S-Carb is used as a sodium source to maintain electrolyte balance, improve heat stress tolerance, and dry litter. In layer diets, S-Carb is used to improve eggshell quality, particularly in older hens.
S-Carb is available in bulk shipments by hopper truck, pneumatic truck, or rail cars. The product is also packaged in 50 lb. bags, 25 kilo bags, 1 metric ton bags, 1 ton bags, and bulk.
