Pig Slaughterhouse Compaxo donates equipment for slaughterhouses in Ghana

February 2, 2020

Today EonA received 4 mobile partition boards and a number of knives from Compaxo pig slaughterhouse which will be used in Ghanaian slaughterhouses. 

There’s a lack of this kind of equipment in Ghana, because they are rarely available, or not at all. The mobile partition boards are essential in moving the pigs in a calm and effective way. The knives are needed to slaughter the pigs quickly instead of using the usual blunt knives which exacerbate the senseless suffering of the animals. When using correct and sharp knives, the suffering of the animals will be reduced significantly.

With this donation we can help reduce animal suffering in Ghanaian slaughterhouses and would therefore like to thank Compaxo for this generous gift.

The NVWA has made it clear to the entire calf export-import industry between Ireland and the Netherlands: transporting unweaned calves for more than 30 hours without milk will no longer be tolerated.
