(Deotized Animal Cage Board)

Lasts up to 50% longer than most other cage papers.Compare DACB to other popular cage lining materials. You'll see why laboratory animal cage maintenance is easier, more economical with DACB. Here's why:

Saves labor. Depending on the animal population, you'll replace DACB only once every 3 or 4 days. Not daily as with some other materials. DACB takes less time to change too.

Reduces odors. DACB's unique antibiotic ingredient, neomycin, retards formation of unpleasant odors.

Handles easily. DACB sheets are semirigid for easier handling. No small particles as with sawdust and shavings.

Highly absorbent. The top layer is waffled and highly absorbent. It lessens liquid runoff and movement of fecal material, facilitating easy removal of wastes and soiled paper.


Cannot create dust - Unlike loose litter, DACB will not contribute to airborne dust.

30% to 50% longer lasting - DACB is simply a better way to handle animal waste. It lasts up to 50% longer than most other cage lining papers.

Custom sizing - DACB is available in a wide range of sizes custom cut to your specific requirements.
