RALEIGH, N.C.--Visitors to the VIV Asia 2011 exhibition in Bangkok in
March will be able to see the new, expanded portfolio from Pfizer
Poultry Health, including one of its fully automated in ovo
injection devices.
Though the company has a wide range of health solutions covering the
major poultry production diseases, its focus is on the individual farm,
says Hari Yethirajyam Prasad, Asia-Pacific Regional Marketing Director.
“Our aim is to provide our customers with individual help and advice
that is tailored specifically to their needs at an individual business
or unit level.
“We can do this because we have a huge amount of experience at the farm
level, dealing with many different production systems with lots of
different problems.
“VIV Asia is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our extensive
portfolio of vaccines, devices and pharmaceuticals to members of the
industry from right across the Asia-Pacific region. But the reason why
many producers come to us is the value that we can add because of our
unsurpassed customer service and support based on years of experience
and technical excellence.”
The Pfizer stand will include one of the company’s industry-leading
Embrex® Inovoject® System devices: the company developed the first
commercially available in ovo injection system which allows chicks to be
vaccinated prior to hatch.
“Our Embrex Inovoject System has revolutionised production efficiency
and the prevention of disease,” adds Prasad. “The reliability of the
device, in addition to its automation, helps reduce the time and labour
needed to process chicks”. “Not only does in ovo vaccination help
provide an earlier immune response and protection, it can reduce bird
stress by eliminating the need to vaccinate post-hatch. Birds are
processed and transported to the farm and into their ideal grow-out
environment faster.
Pfizer Poultry Health offers nearly 90 different vaccines around the
world, including well-known brands such as Poulvac® and has a very
active new product research program.
VIV Asia runs from March 9 to 11 at the Bangkok International Trade &
Exhibition Centre (BITEC). Further details are available at www.vivasia.nl.
