Acidified Copper Sulfate

Acidified Copper Sulfate

Old Bridge Chemicals’ Acidified Copper Sulfate has been specifically formulated for use in the dairy industry. The product offers benefits over more traditional footbaths based on tetracycline, formaldehyde, copper sulfate or other chemicals. The lower pH of Acidified Copper Sulfate insures that more copper goes into solution, reducing your costs and providing a more efficient operation. The product is especially efficient in areas with hard water.
