Why Steam
HAYGAIN. A life without respiratory diseases
Better health through better hay. Haygain hay steaming is the most effective solution for horses with “hay allergies” - whether the allergic reaction is due to dust, fungal spores, bacteria or mites.
HAYGAIN - Unique hay steamer for dust-free and tasty hay to improve the health, well-being and performance of horses.
Haygain High Temperature Hay Steaming supports respiratory, digestive and overall horse health. It is the only scientifically proven method for significantly reducing respirable irritants and allergens commonly found in forage.
Haygain’s patented steaming technology adds moisture to hay, aiding digestion and hydration. Haygain Steaming preserves hay’s nutrients and Steamed Hay’s proven appetite appeal helps even picky eaters get what they need from their most important food source.
Description
The new HAYGAIN 600
The duration of hay steaming depends on the type of hay, the hay density and the outside temperature. On average, this is between 50 and 60 minutes. The decisive factor here is that the needle of the thermometer remains in the green marked area for at least 10 minutes.
The new HAYGAIN 600 offers an improved design compared to the previous HAYGAIN 600 model. The lid is now equipped with gas pressure springs to give you even more safety when loading and unloading the hay. The shape of the hay container has also been adapted to the HAYGAIN 2000. The capacity of approx. 12 kg of hay is retained. (This may vary depending on the condition, region and filling method. The manufacturer's specifications differ with regard to the filling quantity, but refer to highly compressed bales with high moisture content).
The HAYGAIN 600 is therefore ideally suited for a large horse.
The very robust construction is suitable for installation in both barns and stables. Due to its low weight and compact design, the HAYGAIN 600 can also be taken on trips. The insulated and double-walled hay container can withstand an internal temperature of more than 100°C - which is essential for killing mold spores and bacteria in the hay during steaming.

The problem:
Out of 6 horses, more than 1 horse has respiratory-related complaints, reducing performance. 80% of horses, some of which are in the stables during the day, suffer from respiratory diseases. Allergens such as fungal spores found in hay lead to respiratory diseases such as RAO/COPD + IAD/SAD. These spores can also be harmful to humans and often lead to e.g. hay fever and in severe cases to farmer's lung. Other methods of treating hay can solve the dust problem, but they do not improve the hygienic quality of the hay. Soaking hay reduces its nutritional value and shelf life.
The solution:
It has been scientifically proven time and time again that the HAYGAIN hay steamer can eliminate harmful fungal spores and bacteria. At the heart of each hay steamer is a unique distribution pipe system that distributes the steam evenly throughout the hay, ensuring complete steam absorption. Fungal spores and bacteria are eliminated by the moist heat and high temperatures reached during the process. The result is clean, hygienic, dust-free, nutritious hay with improved mineral content, without additives for a healthier, better performing horse.
Microbiological test results with HAYGAIN
HAYGAIN hay steamers have been extensively researched and tested at the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester. The Irish Equine College has tested HAYGAIN on hay infested with Aspergillus mold - the most common fungal pathogen in hay - and has confirmed the effectiveness of HAYGAIN in eliminating these spores. Through ongoing international projects, we will continue to stay on the ball in the areas of research and development in the future.
Customer Testimonials:
"One of my show jumping horses had health issues for two years due to a dust allergy, and neither medication nor environmental changes helped. We tried HAYGAIN in the stable, and within a week, we noticed the first signs of improvement. After two weeks, the coughing had completely stopped."
— Jackie Dunton, show jumper from Chelmsford
"Our horse Monty has COPD and was previously on Ventipulmin. Now, instead, he gets steamed hay from HAYGAIN, and he hasn’t coughed at all this winter. We’re so happy! It’s a fantastic device, and we wouldn’t want to be without it!"
— Martin Naylor, South Yorkshire
"The HAYGAIN hay steamer has transformed how we feed our horses. It’s a wonderful feeling to know our hay is tasty and spore-free. Dust- and spore-free hay is healthy for all sport horses—especially for my eventing horses. It uses very little water, so it’s cost-effective and much simpler and less messy than soaking!"
— Matt Ryan, International event rider & three-time Olympic gold medalist
"The HAYGAIN hay steamer has proven to be incredibly beneficial in our stable. Not only is everything cleaner, but our horses are also absolutely crazy about the steamed hay."
— James Fanshawe, racehorse trainer
"We bought the device specifically for a horse with chronic respiratory disease. We are confident that feeding it HAYGAIN steamed hay greatly supports its medical treatment and provides additional relief."
— Joseph Klaphake, Paul Schockemöhle Pferdehaltung GmbH
"Even one of my horses sometimes reacts sensitively to high-quality hay. It eats HAYGAIN steamed hay completely without issue. That convinced me. At our farm, the HAYGAIN is now a permanent part of the stable setup."
— Matthias Alexander Rath, international dressage rider
"The HAYGAIN is in use all day in our stable. The device is easy to use and helps us effectively reduce spores and other contaminants that can even be found in good hay with minimal effort. HAYGAIN helps ensure my racehorses are in top condition for the start."

"For me, the HAYGAIN is an invaluable addition to my yard—a brilliant and simple way to provide guaranteed dust-free hay."
