PRODUCTS:
PAP AND ANIMAL FATS
Our products originate from a rendering process designed to ensure safety, traceability and consistent standards. Proteins — PAP — provide a repeatable nutritional and agronomic profile, while rendered animal fats ensure a high energy content and controlled parameters. Batch stability and compliance are an integral part of the final quality delivered to our customers.
Moreover, proteins and fats of animal origin derived from by-products have a lower carbon footprint than plant-based ingredients such as soybean meal or palm oil, whose production is often associated with deforestation, land-use change and intensive farming practices. Valorizing what is already part of the supply chain means reducing new pressure on forests, soil and natural resources, contributing to a truly more sustainable model.

ANIMAL FATS
(MULTI-SPECIES AND SWINE ORIGIN)
Animal fat is a mixture of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids obtained from the processing of Category 3 Animal By-Products — ABP — through thermal treatment and separation. It is a raw material with a high energy content. For feed applications, we use natural antioxidants to support stability and shelf life.
