Chemlock Nutrition Launches CalBal® [Pro]

Smarter, simpler dyscalcemia solution significantly improves transition cow performance.

Cincinnati, OH – September 9, 2025 – Chemlock Nutrition today announced the launch of CalBal® [Pro], a next-generation dietary solution that simplifies transition cow management and supports healthier, more productive herds. Building on the proven success of the original Nutricow® CalBal®, the new CalBal® [Pro] formula is more concentrated, enabling lower feed rates while reducing shipping, storage, and handling costs.

Every CalBal® [Pro] pellet is also uniformly embedded with Nutrilock® Chromium, leading to improved immune function, better dry matter intake, more energy, more milk production, and more value.

CalBal [Pro] is produced through a vertically integrated, patent-pending process featuring Chemlock’s proprietary CaP Matrix Technology. This innovation helps to maintain calcium balance, reduce dyscalcemia, and keep herds performing at their best.

“Transition cow health has always been one of the most challenging and costly hurdles for dairy operations,” said Rick Brown, Dairy Science Director at Chemlock Nutrition. “CalBal® [Pro] gives producers a simpler, more reliable way to manage their herds without the burden of urine pH testing, sourcing low-potassium forage, or relying on costly calcium boluses.”

Benefits for Producers and Nutritionists

  • For Producers: Simplify transition pen care by eliminating urine pH testing, low-k forage and reducing calcium bolus expenses.
  • For Nutritionists: A consistent, validated solution that reliably reduces dyscalcemia.

CalBal® [Pro] underscores Chemlock Nutrition’s commitment to advancing dairy nutrition with solutions that are both scientifically validated and practical on the farm. With the dairy industry facing growing challenges in labor, efficiency, and herd health, CalBal® [Pro] offers a product that delivers real-world value.

CalBal [Pro] is available now throughout the United States. For more information, contact your local Chemlock sales representative, email answers@chemlocknutrition.com, or visit https://chemlocknutrition.com/calbal-pro/
