Evans Masofilm Barrier Teat Dip 25L is a ready-to-use, iodine-based teat disinfectant and conditioner for dairy cows after milking. Made by Evans Vanodine, it forms a protective film over the teat to provide barrier protection between milkings, making it a practical choice for farms using a manual post-milking dipping routine. The formulation contains 10% glycerine and sorbitol emollients to help maintain teat skin condition, together with polymers that support film formation. Masofilm passes EN 1656 against bacteria and EN 1657 against yeast under the manufacturer’s stated test conditions. Supplied in a 25-litre container, it requires no dilution or mixing. Apply by dipping only; Masofilm is not suitable for spraying or pre-milking use.

The formulation combines teat hygiene with glycerol and sorbitol emollients to help maintain skin condition, while its barrier-style action supports coverage between milkings. Use undiluted after milking, applying complete teat coverage by the labelled dipping or spraying method. The ready-to-use format avoids on-farm dilution and suits a consistent routine where a barrier-style product is wanted. Keep application equipment clean, replenish with fresh product and follow the label for the period after treatment. Prepare and dry teats correctly before the next milking, using individual towels to limit transfer between cows.

Professional Teat Dips & Dairy Udder Hygiene

Effective teat hygiene is an important part of good dairy management and can help reduce bacterial contamination around the teat before and after milking.

Astral Hygiene supplies a comprehensive range of professional teat dips and sprays for pre-milking and post-milking applications.

Our range includes products based on iodine, PVP-iodine, chlorhexidine and lactic acid technologies, alongside specialist barrier-film formulations designed to provide extended coverage between milkings.

Many formulations also contain conditioning ingredients such as glycerol, sorbitol or allantoin, helping support teat skin condition alongside routine disinfection.

Whether your dairy operation uses dipping, spraying or foaming, Astral Hygiene stocks professional teat-care products suitable for a range of milking systems and herd-management programmes.

Pre-Milking, Post-Milking & Barrier Teat Care

Different dairy operations require different teat-care systems depending on milking routine, herd requirements and application method.

Pre-milking teat disinfectants are used before milking to help reduce surface contamination and prepare the teat for hygienic cluster attachment. Products such as Pre-Dip are formulated specifically for fast pre-milking application.

Post-milking teat dips and sprays are designed for application immediately after milking. Products such as Masodine RTU, Four Seasons Masodip and Lact-8 provide ready-to-use options for post-milking teat hygiene.
