Heritage
Our technology since 1982.
We are Master in microencapsulation.
We were the first to use the matrix technology for
rumen-bypass of amino acids in dairy cows.
We then scaled-up our expertise to intestinal
slow-release in monogastric animals and aquatic
species.
Our products are designed to guarantee a
targeted delivery of active ingredients in the
intestinal tract of animals.
Exactly where needed.
