It is imperative for ethical reasons to minimise the suffering of animals
The controlled atmosphere stunning system uses a multi-stage carbon dioxide process, which is the most reliable slaughter method to ensure consistency in terms of animal welfare and product quality. Thanks to CO2, it produces painless stunning, reducing stress.
It practically eliminates the handling of active birds, reducing the risks for the operator and the danger of biological contaminants affecting the health of workers is eliminated.

agitated state of birds, there is
less bruising following the
controlled atmosphere stunning
process.
The quality of your product has the potential to improve,

In many European countries, there is a regulatory
requirement to stunning pigs and poultry prior to
slaughter.
Animal welfare
Birds remain unconscious until further processing steps, greatly reducing bruising and wing
damage.
To ensure animal welfare, it is necessary to use slaughter methods that minimise pain and stress in poultry and pigs. This can be done by carbon dioxide stunning prior to slaughter.
