PAPILLA FOR ORGANIC USE
USE OF BISMUTH SUBNITRATE IN ORGANIC FARMING SYSTEMS
PAPILLA Seal: The Natural Alternative for Organic Dairy Farming
In the context of organic livestock production, compliance with EU regulations is essential. Bismuth subnitrate, commonly used in teat sealants for dry cow mastitis prevention, is prohibited under organic regulations (EC 834/2007, 889/2008, and 848/2018).
The prophylactic use of synthetic drugs—except immunologicals—is not allowed in organic systems and may lead to non-compliance for certified producers.
PAPILLA Seal, developed in our Italian laboratories, is the only truly compliant, natural, and effective alternative. Made from beeswax with bacteriostatic properties, it’s specifically designed for dairy producers working under organic protocols.
- Compliant with EU organic regulations
- Natural product – no antibiotics, no chemical residues
- Safe, sustainable solution for animal health
Support organic milk quality and protect animal welfare with an innovative and regulation-approved alternative.
The document outlines that bismuth subnitrate, a synthetic active ingredient used in teat sealants for dry cow mastitis prevention, is prohibited in organic livestock systems under EU regulations (889/2008, 834/2007, 848/2018). Certification bodies and consumer associations confirm its use contradicts the core principles of organic farming. The only valid, compliant alternative is PAPILLA Seal, an innovative beeswax-based sealant with bacteriostatic properties, developed in Italy specifically for organic dairy producers.
