RKW ProAgri’s Polydress O² barrier

Caxton Magazines

The Polydress O2 Barrier 2-in-1 uniquely combines polyethylene silage film and polyamide underlay film to create an oxygen barrier that has been improved, it is claimed, by a factor of between 6 and 10.

Manufactured by RKW ProAgri, the Polydress O2 is designed to reduce fermentation losses and minimise mould formation while conserving high-quality filling.

Silage can be covered much faster and the process is less expensive than with conventional silage films.

Because the polyamide underlay film is attached to the silage film, the Polydress O2 can be applied in a single step.

The adhesive underlay film allows for the diffusion of moisture, yet also forms a significantly improved oxygen barrier.

The underlay automatically separates from the silage film after a time, adhering to the surface of the silage during fermentation.

Using one film instead of two saves on transport, warehousing and labour.

There are also environmental savings over conventional films: 40% less raw material used during manufacture and 50% less packaging. The product has been field-tested and positively received by farmers.
