Ravager thermal dehydrator

Ravager Set to Revolutionize Poultry Mortality Management

Olar, SC – November 4, 2025 - Innovative Poultry Products is excited to introduce the new Ravager thermal dehydrator as the solution to mortality disposal in the poultry industry!

Disposing of poultry mortalities on-farm is a constant challenge, and while there are a variety of methods for dealing with this, not all are created equal. Biosecurity, cost, labor, odors, and regulations all complicate the task and make it a burden for growers.

Dehydration offers a practical solution using controlled heat, airflow, and agitation to process deadstock quickly. Disposal costs are reduced because there is no need to haul mortality to a rendering plant or rely on external pickups. Biosecurity is improved as soil and groundwater are protected by keeping the mortality contained. Unwanted odor, flies, and scavengers are also significantly reduced.

Dehydration also avoids environmental penalties as biosecurity legislation increases. Another benefit is that the dry sterile by-product that is produced can often be reused on-farm, recovering value instead of simply disposing of dead matter.

Imagined, engineered, and manufactured in South Carolina, the Ravager combines robust components, intuitive and innovative features, and top-quality manufacturing to bring to growers a dehydrator that will be an asset to their operation. Standout features include the following:

  • The hydraulic operated lid extends the full width of the machine, allowing for up to a 60-inch loader bucket to dump mortality into the drum.
  • Powerful hydraulics allow the entire drum to be emptied quickly and cleanly at any stage, eliminating shoveling and reducing biosecurity risks.
  • Heavy duty rotor paddles with crusher blocks reduce bones to 1–1.5" pieces for thorough, uniform sterilization.
