Feed additives are products used in animal nutrition for purposes of improving the quality of feed and the quality of food from animal origin, or to improve the animals’ performance and health, e.g. providing enhanced digestibility of the feed materials as defined by the European Commission. Feed additives are used to:

  • Improve feed efficiency and digestion
  • Promote growth and weight gain
  • Enhance immunity and health
  • Maintain feed quality and palatability
  • Safer and natural alternatives to antibiotics or other chemical treatments

Yes, you can combine multiple feed additives into the feed, but it is important to consider:

  • Compatibility: Ensure the additives do not react negatively with each other. For example, some vitamins may degrade when combined with certain minerals.
  • Purpose: Each additive should serve a specific purpose (e.g., improving gut health, enhancing immunity, or increasing growth rate). Combining multiple additives can offer a broader range of benefits if done correctly.
  • Dosage: Follow the recommended inclusion rates to avoid overdosing or underdosing, which could impact animal health.
  • Regulations: Adhere to local regulations and guidelines, as some additives may have restrictions on usage or maximum allowable limits.
  • High-quality products: Inherent perfectionism and more than 40 years of industry experience lead to uncompromised high quality.
  • Customer-centric: We value customer feedback and tailor our services to meet and exceed expectations.
  • Ethical relationships: Transparent, honest and faithful relationships with our partners.
  • Customized solutions: Flexibility and customization depending on our customers’ requests that perfectly fit the market needs.
  • Competitiveness: Preferable price to quality ratio.

Enzymes are specialized proteins that break down complex feed components, making nutrients more accessible to the animals. Enzymes help break down components like fiber (xylanase), protein (protease), and phytate (phytase). For instance, phytase breaks down phytate, which is an indigestible form of phosphorus in plant feeds, making phosphorus available to the animal. By improving nutrient utilization, enzymes reduce the need for expensive supplemental ingredients (e.g., inorganic phosphorus). Enhanced feed efficiency lowers feed costs, making production more economical.

Enzymes increase nutrient utilization, which means fewer undigested nutrients are excreted. This reduces nutrient pollution (e.g., nitrogen and phosphorus) in the environment.

Animals can utilize feed more efficiently, leading to better growth rates, improved feed conversion ratios (FCR), and higher overall productivity.

Phytogenic feed additives, also known as botanicals, are derived from plants and include essential oils, herbs, spices, and plant extracts.

Many phytogenic compounds have natural antimicrobial effects, helping to control pathogenic bacteria in the gut. Their antioxidant properties protect cells from oxidative damage, boosting immune function.

Phytogenics stimulate the production of digestive enzymes and bile, enhancing the breakdown and utilization of nutrients.

The flavors and aromas of plant extracts can make feed more appealing, increasing feed intake and promoting steady growth.

Phytogenics can help maintain gut health and performance without relying on antibiotic growth promoters, aligning with consumer demand for antibiotic-free products.

Some phytogenic additives have calming effects, which can help reduce stress in animals during handling, transport, or environmental changes.
