Animal welfare is not a statement on a page. It’s how facilities and studies are run and monitored – every day, in-life, by the people on the ground.
Drayton Animal Health is dedicated to the health and welfare of farmed animals and the safety of the food chain, and we apply that commitment across our facilities, our field networks and our study oversight.
All of our work follows the three ethical Rs of animal research: Replacement, Reduction and Refinement.
That means we look for appropriate alternatives where possible, we design studies to use the minimum number of animals required to answer the question properly, and we refine procedures and husbandry to reduce stress and improve welfare outcomes.
We’ll help you sense-check the most appropriate study route, and how welfare and quality will be maintained throughout.
