pH Level and Cubicle Lime

pH Level and Cubicle Lime

We sell 10% Hydrated Lime for Cubicles.

This is standard lime with 10% White Rhino (Builders lime) added to it. This increases the pH Level from approx 8.5 to approx 12.5 

This change in pH Level is important because the higher the level, the more deadly it is to troublesome bacteria.

On the graph it shows 7 common bacteria and the pH levels they can survive at.

They're all still alive at the pH of Standard Cubicle Lime 8.5 ...but they'll all be dead at the 10% Hydrated Lime Mix pH 12.5 level.

Another benefit of using this 10% hydrated lime mix is that it's strong enough to kill off the bacteria but not too strong that it burns the skin or teats of the cows.

So visit MagentaDirect.ie and order our Magenta 10% Hydrated Mix Lime today, you know it makes sense!

CUBICLE LIME


At MagentaDirect.ie we have the 2 popular types of cubicle lime available on the market.

STANDARD CUBICLE LIME: This is WHITE in colour and like FLOUR in feel and touch. It's generally run through a roller mill which gets rid of all the grit.

Farmer feedback tells us that this limestone goes much further, they cover more cubicles with this product than with the grey type limes. This has a similar pH to the grey lime.

We sell this in 1 tonne bulk bags and in pallets of plastic bags under the name MAGENTA CUBICLE LIME

10% HYDRATED LIME: This is standard cubicle lime with 10% Hydrated Lime (Rhino or builders lime) mixed in.

The advantages of this type of product is that the pH levels are raised considerably (approx. 12.5) which will kill most bacteria without skin/teat burning.

We sell this in 1 tonne bulk bags and in pallets of plastic bags under the name MAGENTA 10% HYDRATED LIME
