The unit has been reconstructed, cleaned and disinfected to meet our strict demands for animal health, safety and welfare. The resting place is situated on a biosecure location in an area with a low density of pigs.
Resting places open for everybody are a big health risk. For reasons of animal welfare, the EU has implemented legislation that rest at an official rest place is compulsory for long distances (> 24 hours). Many vehicles have to follow the same procedure at these resting places. This is a severe threat as high-health pigs can be contaminated with pathogens from conventional pigs. With a own resting place only for Topigs Norsvin we eliminate this risk.
