Enviro Tech Launches PD2 Litter Treatment For Performance Supportive Poultry Litter


(MENAFN- ACCESSWIRE) MODESTO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / January 27, 2026 / Enviro Tech, an Arxada company, introduces PD2 Litter Treatment-an EPA-registered1, peracetic acid (PAA)-based, alkaline, granular product designed for poultry litter management. When applied directly to the litter, PD2 activates by utilizing existing barn moisture to help producers start strong and finish heavier by building a better foundation for every flock2, delivering protection that integrates seamlessly with existing litter management practices.

"Every flock begins on litter, and what's in that litter impacts how birds finish," said Dr. K. Scott McKenzie, Director of Technical Services, Enviro Tech. "PD2 Litter Treatment brings our peracetic acid chemistry into the litter, helping create a performance supportive environment from the ground up."​

PD2 Proven Results and Benefits
Field trials in both research and commercial farm settings show PD2 delivers measurable improvements in key performance metrics-including bird weight, feed conversion, and mortality-helping producers protect their bottom line.

Performance advantages include:

  • Pathogen Reduction: Targets harmful pathogens and has been proven to reduce bacteria such as Salmonella, E. coli, Listeria, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, and Pseudomonas on hard surfaces, helping create a performance-supportive environment for flocks.

  • Virus Control: Effective against viruses, including Avian Influenza A virus and Infectious Laryngotracheitis (ILT) virus, on hard surfaces.

  • Alkaline Advantage: PD2's alkaline formulation works synergistically with existing litter alkaline pH, unlike acidic ammonia treatments.

  • Easy to Apply Granules: Uses same application equipment as other granular litter amendments.

  • Flexible Application: Rates of 40-80 lbs. per 1,000 square feet.

Packaging options include 40-lb sacks, 500-lb drum sacks, and 2,200-lb super sacks to support a range of operating sizes and application methods.​

"To help protect performance, producers need dry litter treatments that fit in the way they are already applied," McKenzie added. "With alkaline chemistry, moisture-activated protection, and flexible application, PD2 is designed to support that goal."​

Commitment to Innovation
The introduction of PD2 Litter Treatment underscores Enviro Tech's commitment to innovation and market leadership in animal health and biosecurity. By expanding our portfolio with solutions that improve flock performance and operational efficiency, we are strengthening our position in a growing poultry industry and creating new opportunities for sustainable performance solutions. This launch reflects our strategic focus on delivering value to producers and consumers alike.

"PD2 is a practical example of innovation in action," said McKenzie. "It combines proven chemistry with ease of application, giving producers a tool that supports flock performance while aligning with our broader goal of advancing biosecurity," McKenzie concluded.
