Piglait
Designed to help farmers achieve the best piglet performance – right from the start
Piglait is your trusted partner in raising piglets that perform.
Piglait, is a new solution from experts at Nukamel and Swinco that helps farmers achieve top performance from their piglets. Tailor-made for each individual farm, it combines nutritional solutions, a robust feeding system and key practical advice. This holistic approach enables piglets to begin life with optimal growth and development.
Nutrition in early-life nutrition has been scientifically proven to influence metabolism later in life. Piglait focuses exclusively on the critical period from birth to weaning, which can be full of opportunities.
Big Litter Line
Piglets increase their birth weight more than fivefold in the first month of life. To grow that fast they need a lot of nutrients. In fact, more nutrients than at any other time in their life.
For farms with hyperprolific sows, increasing survival rate is key.
Robust Litter Line
Colostrum and sow milk will provide piglets with the majority of the nutrients they need. However, a high-quality additional transition milk is needed to prepare them for smooth weaning.
Piglait’s Robust Litter line includes milks that are specially designed to ‘train’ the gut of young piglets.
MFGM, the new dairy solution for growth
Behind the scenes, we have been investigating MFGM (Milk Fat Globule Membrane), a complex and valuable milk component. MFGM is an excellent source of dairy fat and dairy bioactives with proven effects on infants and young animals, including piglets.
The effects include improved fat digestibility and metabolism, support of immune function and promotion of intestinal development.
