Our Applications

Amino Acids

Amino acids are vital for protein building in any animal feed and are central to a healthy, growth-sustaining diet. Low protein diets, supplemented with essential amino acids, reduce feed costs and nitrogen emissions while ensuring animals receive all necessary nutrients. Our solutions optimize nutrition, improve productivity, and support farmers in balancing profitability with environmental responsibility.

Feed Quality & Digital Services

We enhance animal feed production with tailored analytical, handling, and dosing services. Our nutritional concepts and AMINO® services ensure consistent feed quality according to the specific needs of animals. Our digital tool for continuous monitoring of gastrointestinal pathogens in poultry helps farmers to detect and manage disease early. Our handling and dosing solutions optimize the feed manufacturing process, boosting the overall economic performance of your business.

Functional Feed Additives

Functional feed additives, such as probiotics, can improve animal performance, health and welfare, leading to increased end-product quality, overall operation profitability, and solve sustainability challenges at the same time. Some feed additives help balance the gut microbiota, reducing the need for antibiotics; others manage chronic inflammation or improve the animals’ energy metabolism. Optimizing animal nutrition and health contributes to more sustainable and efficient farming practices.

Plant Nutrition & Fertilizers

Plants depend on the supply of important nutrients for optimal development. These include not only macronutrients such as nitrogen, but also minerals such as phosphorus, potassium, and sulfur. With AgraLi® and blueSulfate®, we provide two highly efficient liquid sources for nitrogen, potassium, and sulfur, as well as for general soil improvement.
