Voluntary Recall of Feed Ingredient Due to Dioxin Contamination

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) is monitoring the effectiveness of a voluntary recall of Red Lake Earth R.L.E. – Diatomaceous Earth Diatomite, an inert carrier or anti-caking agent used in livestock feeds.

The CFIA recommended to the manufacturer, Absorbent Products Ltd., that this product be recalled from the Canadian marketplace due to unacceptable levels of dioxins.  The recall includes all lots of the product used as a feed ingredient. At this time, the recall would not include complete feeds, supplements or premixes made with this product.
