Fenchem launches coated products for ruminants at VIV Asia

Nutritionists are constantly challenged to maximize the digestibility of sometimes poorly absorbed feed ingredients. Many approaches have been evaluated to physically protect feed ingredients from ruminal degradation.

The products Fenchem launches at VIV Asia in Bangkok have high ruminal protection and intestinal release coefficients, produced through a unique microencapsulation technology:

Aminofence-Lys is a rumen stabilized lysine - a cost effective source of rumen bypass and intestinally released lysine for use in ruminant.
CholineShield is a rumen stabilized choline - a cost effective source of rumen bypass and intestinally released choline chloride for use in ruminant.
Aminofence-Met is a rumen stabilized methionine - a cost effective source of rumen bypass and intestinally released methionine for use in ruminant.
Aminofence-Nia is a rumen stabilized niacin - a cost effective source of rumen bypass and intestinally released niacin for use in ruminant. Read more ...

Lallemand opens new Titan yeast production plant

Lallemand Animal Nutrition has announced the opening of a second yeast coating facility in Passau, Germany, dedicated to the processing of protected yeasts Levucell SB and SC Titan. The new state-of the-art-facility is fully compliant with animal feed quality and safety standards. It has already been successfully audited according to FAMI-QS standard.

Until now, protected yeast was produced in Lallemand Vienna’s yeast plant only. The new German facility enables to double the company’s production capacity for quality protected yeasts, in order to address a soaring demand from the market.

Protecting yeasts

“Pelleted feed represents a significant part of the animal feed market, attaining from 30 percent to as much as 80 percent, depending on the local country practices and target species,” says Laurent Dussert, ruminant product manager for Lallemand. “Our innovative Titan technology maximises the delivery of live yeast to the host animal when submitted to drastic feed processing conditions, such as pelleting.” Titan is a patented technology developed by Lallemand, which combines an optimisation of the yeast fermentation and drying processes with a unique coating technology.
