Wholesale Industrial Grade and Feed Grade Calcium Formate

Calcium formate for construction

In construction, it is mainly used as a rapid setting agent, lubricant, and early strength agent for cement, in building mortar and various types of concrete, which can accelerate the hardening speed of cement and shorten the setting time.

Especially during winter construction, the use of calcium formate can avoid slow setting and quick demolding at low temperatures, allowing cement to increase its strength and be put into use as soon as possible.

Calcium formate for feed

Calcium formate can be used as a feed additive for piglets, which can promote appetite and reduce diarrhea rate.

Adding 1% -1.5% calcium formate to piglet diets can significantly improve the production performance of weaned piglets. According to German research, adding 1.3% calcium formate to weaned piglet diets can improve feed conversion rates by 7% -8%, and adding 0.9% can reduce the occurrence of piglet diarrhea.

The amount of calcium formate added to feed varies depending on factors such as animal species, growth stage, and feed formula, and a unified fixed value cannot be given. But generally speaking, the proportion of its addition in the feed will be controlled within a certain range to achieve the best effect. The amount of calcium formate added to feed is a comprehensive consideration based on multiple factors. In practical applications, adjustments should be made based on the specific conditions of the animals and the feed formula to achieve optimal growth and economic benefits.

Calcium formate for feed is an efficient, safe, and environmentally friendly organic calcium supplement with broad application prospects in animal feed. However, attention should also be paid to controlling the amount of additives during use to avoid adverse effects on animals caused by excessive use. Compared with traditional inorganic calcium sources, calcium formate has better bioavailability and lower residual levels, with less environmental pollution. Therefore, adding calcium formate to feed also meets the requirements of sustainable development in modern animal husbandry.
