ViralFX® Hygiene & Biosecurity Mat

The ViralFX® Hygiene & Biosecurity Mat provides a simple and effective way to disinfect footwear, boots and light trolley wheels before entering or leaving animal housing. Used correctly, it helps reduce the movement of disease-causing pathogens between sheds, pens and production areas, making it an important component of any farm hygiene and biosecurity program.

For best results, we recommend using ViralFX®, our broad-spectrum virucidal, bactericidal and fungicidal disinfectant and cleaner. Together, the ViralFX® Hygiene & Biosecurity Mat and ViralFX® provide a practical, easy-to-use solution for strengthening farm hygiene and biosecurity at key entry and exit points.

Position the ViralFX® Hygiene & Biosecurity Mat anywhere people regularly move between clean and dirty zones or between livestock groups. Common locations include calf sheds, poultry sheds, piggeries, milking parlours, veterinary facilities, feed preparation areas and visitor entry points. Correct placement encourages consistent hygiene practices and helps reduce the risk of disease transmission throughout the farm.

Keep the mat clean, fully saturated with fresh ViralFX® solution and free from excessive dirt or organic matter. Replace the disinfectant solution in accordance with the ViralFX® label recommendations, or sooner if it becomes heavily contaminated. Regular inspection and maintenance are essential to ensure the mat remains an effective part of your farm hygiene and biosecurity program.

No. The ViralFX® Hygiene & Biosecurity Mat is one component of a comprehensive farm hygiene and biosecurity program. For the best protection, combine it with routine cleaning and disinfection using ViralFX®, effective traffic management and sound biosecurity practices. For producers looking to further strengthen hygiene within livestock housing, we also recommend NatriSORB™, our ultra-absorbent bedding conditioner. ViralFX® provides proven disinfection, while NatriSORB™ helps maintain a cleaner, drier environment by reducing moisture, ammonia and odour between cleaning and disinfection events. Together, they provide a more complete farm hygiene and biosecurity solution.
