Tecnoshell

The solution for strengthening poultry bones and eggshells

Context

As hens age, the quality of their eggshell declines: they decrease in thickness and strength, and the rate of cracked or broken eggs increases significantly toward the end of the laying cycle. This deterioration is linked to physiological and nutritional changes (CaCO₃ deposition, calcium metabolism, mineral status) that weaken the shell structure and increase losses on the farm. Targeted nutritional supplementation helps support the birds’ health and productivity by promoting stronger bones and better shell formation throughout the laying period.

Product features

Tecnoshell is a specific blend of mineral forms and plant-based products that act in synergy to help strengthen poultry bones and eggshells. It is intended for future laying hens during their growth phase or during the laying period. Thanks to its collagen precursor, Tecnoshell promotes calcium absorption, transport, and mobilization. The plant-based ingredients play a metabolic role in strengthening the skeleton and supporting tissues. Trace minerals help strengthen eggshells by influencing the synthesis of the shell’s protein structure.

Benefits

Supplementation with Tecnoshell helps to:

• Strengthen bones and eggshells
• Reduce rejected eggs by up to 12%
• Increase the longevity of laying hens by limiting the use of calcium from bones
• Improve performance: hatching rate (up to +0.7%), laying rate (up to +1.5%)
