Equine Incinerators

M & S Combustion have a new product line coming through the pipeline. We are keen to share with the agricultural and equine society’s how to discretely and properly manage the safe disposal of larger animals.

For a variety of reasons, disposing of equine carcasses can be troublesome. Cost, size, and the potential for disease spread. In this blog post, we delve into the world of equine incinerators, exploring their benefits, processes, and their contribution to a more environmentally conscious approach to equine aftercare.

Our selection of top-loading incinerators has a huge door opening so even the biggest horses can be loaded into it without any problems. Horse breeders, rescue facilities, hunts, and knackers yards are just a few of the industries that use these devices. In the USA and the UK, there is also a burgeoning market for equine pet cremation.

On-site burning eliminates any accumulations of waste that attract vermin and pests and lowers costly waste collection fees. It also prevents infection or the spread of diseases like tuberculosis.

All of our incinerators are sold with a one-year warranty and worldwide post-sale assistance, and they are all delivered completely maintained and ready to use.

The equine industry carries a unique responsibility for the proper handling and management of deceased horses. In recent years, equine incinerators have emerged as a sustainable and compassionate solution for the dignified disposal of equine remains.

    • Addressing the Need for Responsible Equine Aftercare: The loss of a beloved equine companion is a challenging time for horse owners. Ensuring a respectful and environmentally responsible final goodbye is paramount. Equine incinerators provide a solution that meets these requirements by offering a controlled and efficient process for the cremation of equine remains.
    • Sustainable and Environmentally Friendly: Equine incinerators utilize advanced technology to minimize their environmental impact. They are designed to operate with high energy efficiency, incorporating features such as secondary combustion chambers and emission control systems to minimize air pollution. Additionally, some incinerators can utilize waste heat recovery systems to generate energy, further reducing their carbon footprint.
    • Efficient and Timely Cremation Process: Equine incinerators are equipped to handle the size and weight of equine remains, ensuring a thorough and efficient cremation process. With controlled heat and advanced incineration technology, these systems can safely and effectively reduce equine remains to ash. The process typically takes several hours, depending on the size of the equine and the specific equipment used.
    • Dignity and Respect for the Equine Companion: Equine incinerators provide a dignified and respectful means of aftercare for deceased horses. Equine remains are carefully placed in the incinerator, and the process is conducted in a controlled environment to ensure the integrity of the cremation. Following the cremation, the ashes can be returned to the owner for memorialization or used for other meaningful purposes, such as scattering in a special location or creating keepsake items.
    • Compliance with Regulatory Standards: Equine incinerators adhere to strict regulatory standards to ensure safe and responsible operation. These standards may vary depending on the location, but they typically include guidelines for emissions control, waste management, and occupational safety. Choosing a reputable equine incineration service ensures compliance with these regulations, giving horse owners peace of mind that their equine companion is handled in a legal and ethical manner.
    • Supporting Equine Industry Sustainability: By embracing equine incinerators, the equine industry takes a significant step towards sustainability. Properly managing equine remains through environmentally friendly means reduces the impact on landfills and contributes to the industry’s commitment to responsible practices. Equine incinerators offer a proactive and forward-thinking approach to equine aftercare that aligns with the values of sustainable resource management.

Conclusion: Equine incinerators offer a compassionate, efficient, and environmentally conscious solution for the aftercare of deceased horses. These systems provide a dignified farewell to equine companions while minimizing the environmental impact associated with traditional burial methods. By embracing equine incinerators, the equine industry takes a proactive stance towards sustainability and responsible practices. Let us continue to explore innovative and compassionate solutions like equine incinerators, ensuring that our equine companions receive the respectful farewell they deserve while contributing to a more sustainable future for the industry.
