ENGINEERED FOR ANY SIZE OPERATION.

The all new BioSpreader brings heavy-duty to the next level. While other manufacturers use mild steel flighting, the PTX is built with hardened steel to prevent sagging and deformity over extended use. Our live floor has a 3/4" grade 80 logging chain with a higher breaking strength.

HEAVY DUTY EVERYTHING

The BioSpreader 14 and 20 models bring heavy duty to the next level. Built with hardened steel to prevent sagging and deformation over extended use. The live floor has a 3/4” grade 80 chain with a higher breaking strength, and the innovative vertical beater system delivers rock-steady performance, and uniform spread.

After producers explained their challenges handling manure under a variety of extreme weather and field conditions, the Bio Spreader addresses their biggest concerns: affordability, load capacity, ease of use, maintenance, maneuverability, spread consistency and uniformity. Unlike other pull-behind compost spreaders, BioSpreader offers the most versatility in the market. Many operations can afford to purchase two!

Key Features

  • Can achieve up to 50 ft wide and 100 ft long spread pattern.
  • Live floor gives the option to unload all of its material in as little as 90 seconds.
  • Longer hitch allows for a tighter turning radius for better maneuverability in tight spaces.
  • Thicker abrasion-resistant teeth are significantly harder than regular steel so they last longer and can be easily replaced. Unique double-shear tooth retainer (patent pending).

Side Extensions
