PRODUCTION METHOD
ALIPHOS® MONOCAL is produced through the chemical reaction of defluorinated phosphoric
acid with dicalcium phosphate produced at the same location, under strictly controlled
conditions. The phosphoric acid used is purified, eliminating the undesirable elements.
PACKAGING LABELING AND
STORAGE
ALIPHOS® MONOCAL is available in bulk, 1000 Kg big bags or 25 Kg bags and either
transported by truck, by rail or by ship. All products are labelled conform to regulation (EC)
767/2009 and identified by means of a lotnumber in order that trace ability is guaranteed
conform to the Feed Hygiene legislation 183/2005/EC.
Properly stored in a dry and cool place it is recommended to use ALIPHOS® MONOCAL within 3
years of manufacture.
USE OF ALIPHOS® MONOCAL
ALIPHOS® MONOCAL is a granular feed phosphate with a high phosphorus content. From
research by reputed institutes, both with poultry and pigs, it is clear that monocalcium
phosphate do contain the highest levels of digestible phosphorus of all calcium phosphates.
ALIPHOS® MONOCAL contains phosphorus and calcium in the ratio of about 0.77. ALIPHOS®
MONOCAL is slightly acid with a negative buffering capacity which makes ALIPHOS®
MONOCAL an ideal phosphorus source for the production of piglet feeds. ALIPHOS®
MONOCAL is free-flowing and blends easily with other feed materials above all it will not cause
dust during handling.
WHY ALIPHOS® MONOCAL
ALIPHOS® MONOCAL combines highly digestible phosphorus with a slightly acidic nature
and it’s, therefore, the phosphate of choice not only for the production of feed for pigs but
also for poultry.
