JERSEY
FLO-STAR" claw
Bou-Matic®’s Flo-Star™ milking claw
improves milk flow for:
• Better cow health
• Faster milk throughput, and
• Better milk quality.
Bou-Matic engineers designed the Flo-Star claw so milk flows
smoothly and quickly out the bottom.
Less agitation equals less chance of milk “mist” carrying bacteria
among teats. So the Flo-Star claw can mean less mastitis spread at
milking.
Prove it to yourself by calling your Bou-Matic dealer for a free, on
farm demonstration.
