SALMET’s Patented Whisk manure drying system

The new and improved, Salmet patented Whisk pre-drying system delivers up to 20% less wet manure coming out of the house compared to systems without the Whisk. The new style Whisk is placed underneath the system where the birds have no access to it. This way the living space for the birds is not reduced. The Whisk system also boasts other benefits including a reduction in energy costs as well as improved air quality inside the barn.
