High-quality products
Unique benefits to support pets
We believe that petfood should offer more than basic sustenance. Meals containing the right ingredients can help keep animals happier and healthier throughout their lives. This is why we distinguish our ingredients by three main functionalities that support nutrition, texture, palatability and health needs in petfood recipes and contribute to optimal animal health.
Nutritional ingredients
The basic, essential ingredients for a nutritional petfood.
Techno-functional ingredients
Products that add texture (e.g. binding and gelling) and ingredients that add flavor and increase palatability.
Bio-functional ingredients
Ingredients which support good health.

Natural and sustainable proteins, fats and minerals for nutritionally balanced petfood
Our animal-origin nutritional ingredients are the most biologically appropriate for carnivorous animals like cats and dogs. They are essential ingredients in a balanced diet, offering an excellent source of protein, essential amino acids and high digestibility. Our ingredients are carefully selected and processed to support good health over the full lifespan, while also offering optimal palatability because we believe all cats and dogs deserve the best nutrition.
Enhancing color, texture and taste for petfood
Engineered to enhance texture in all types of petfood recipes, our fully natural techno-functional ingredients offer distinct advantages across various petfood formulations, and are essential in well-balanced animal nutrition. Our techno-functional ingredients provide excellent palatability and texture to help petfood manufacturers meet pet owners’ expectations for high and consistent quality.
Optimal health solutions backed by science
Our research and development team works directly with customers to create ingredients to support specific animal health concerns, such as mobility, inflamation reduction and boosting immunity. Adjustable to suit almost any dietary need and formulation, our products work to help pets live long, happy and active lives.
