New stunning method reduces pig suffering

September 1, 2025

Vlees, the Dutch magazine for professionals working in the food and restaurant industry, published an article about how Eyes on Animals’ redesigned a large pig slaughterhouse to make high throughput automatic electric-stunning much more humane, and to provide a realistic alternative to the painful CO2 gas stunning option so that the use of CO2 gas can be phased out.

Read the article HERE.

You can watch the video about this new design.
