Sealpro^® Silage Barrier Films and Flortex^® silage and hay protection are now available in several midwestern states through Countryside Dairy Solutions. “We are excited to announce this collaboration, making it easier for dairy farmers to buy and use our best-in-class forage products,” said Connie Kuber, Sealpro co-owner with her husband Ron. Sealpro and Flortex are warehoused in Kansas for local, easy access.

Countryside Dairy Solutions offers a range of physical structure-related solutions and supplies for animals and those who care for them while emphasizing environmental safety and convenience. The addition of Sealpro films and Flortex protection fits Countryside's commitment to sustainable, profitable, and innovative products.

“The staff at Countryside is energetic and eager to tell you about Sealpro film options, whether you prefer double-layer TITANIUM or PROTECT or new single-layer Sealpro ONE,” says Ron. The Sealpro brand was developed by the Kuber’s Connor Agriscience company in 2016, after successfully introducing oxygen barrier film and new, science-based management practices to the Western states when it first came to the market.”

“Flortex nonwoven protection is brand new to the US. Both silage and hay versions are reusable for several seasons,” Ron explains. “The thicker silage version requires few tires across the top of piles and bunkers and allows air to move through it - making application easier. When anchored, it won’t blow off, and it’s safer to walk on than plain black/white film. The lighter hay version allows air to move through while shedding water. Both are easily rolled up and stored when not in use.”
