Paxton’s footbaths help prevent harmful bacteria

Paxton Agricultural, a division of Leafield Environmental are proud to have manufactured and designed specialist agricultural products for over 35 years including their best-selling robust Footbath range designed to clean and prevent livestock from harmful bacteria.

Paxton’s footbath range has been designed in partnership with farmers to ensure the range is fit for purpose and can withstand any weather conditions.  Paxton understands that footcare is essential in order to keep livestock’s feet in good health condition and their footbath range plays a vital role in reducing the risk of diseases such as foot rot. 

The washing action of a Paxton footbath will remove damaging material from hooves, helping to prevent the build-up of dirt in the space between the cleats, where harmful bacteria can develop.  Paxton footbaths are available in five different sizes that are all light to handle, easy to clean and very durable. Made from UV stabilised medium density moulded polyethylene (MDPE).
