SHREDLAGE®. Nothing but the Best.

SHREDLAGE®. The process.

Proven by university studies, independent labs and leading dairies, SHREDLAGE® is a patented conditioning process for the production of corn silage. It involves chopping the plants to greater lengths than usual, ranging from 26 to 30 millimetres, and then processing the chopped material with the special SHREDLAGE® corncracker technology. The corncracker rollers, which have counterdirectional helical grooves, chop up the cob fragments completely and crush the kernels to split them thoroughly. In addition, the stalk fragments are also shredded longitudinally extremely effectively into strings and their bark layer is peeled thanks to the special surface of the rollers.

Benifits over Maize Silage

MCC SHREDLAGE processors rips stalks lengthwise into longer planks and strings than conventional maize silage – effectively enhancing the fiber content, improving packing and exposing the inner cells of the plant for increased microbial activity while still splitting the corn kernels several times for more complete digestion.
