SoftAcid® Aqua is a blend of organic acids (formic and propionic) protected with Lignosulphonic acid. The Lignosulphonic acid provides a protective effect and makes the mixture safe for the user, non-corrosive to metals and skin, but also active in its antimicrobial effect. In practice, its use leads to improved daily live weight increase and to a significant improvement in feed conversion.
SoftAcid® Aqua is used for fish silage and preservation of the fish by- products of fish fillet industry.
By-products from farmed species and wild fish are raw materials for fish silage production. Borregaard LignoTech has developed a combination of formic acid and lignosulphonic acid that controls the pH and reduces corrosion.
