Piglet feed
From prestarter to our multiphase piglet rearing feeds: You will find a wide range of tasty and nutritious products in our extensive feed assortment. Early supplementary feeding with our highly digestible feeds trains the enzyme system and supports the piglets' digestive tract during the transition from sow's milk to a diet containing starch and fibre. In this way you lay the foundation for the healthy development of your animals and help to develop the full performance potential of your young pigs.
The recipes of our carefully manufactured products are the result of constant scientific research and are based on our decades of experience in piglet feeding.

Selected foods include ..
Blood plasma
Blood plasma is a value-determining protein source in feeding. Due to its excellent biological value, it is particularly well utilised by the organism. As a feed supplement, blood plasma stimulates the appetite and ensures the supply of immunoglobulins to the organism.
Protein hydrolysate
Protein hydrolysates are highly digestible, animal Proteinbuilding blocks that are absorbed particularly easily and quickly by the body. This demonstrably accelerates the supply of protein to the muscle tissue. In addition, protein hydrolysate contains all the amino acids essential for pigs and promotes feed intake through its high palatability.
Formic/lactic acid
Formic lactic acid has a pH-lowering effect, which improves feed hygiene. The addition lowers the pH value in the stomach, which protects the pig better against pathogens (e.g. salmonella). The combination of formic and lactic acid also has a positive effect on the activity of enzymes. This improves the digestion of the animals and ultimately the growth performance of growing pigs.
Benzoic acid
The effect of benzoic acid unfolds in the stomach and throughout the small intestine. Administered with the daily feed, benzoic acid leads to a lowering of the pH value in the stomach. The reduction of microorganisms in the intestine has a relieving effect on the animals' immune system.
Mannan oligosaccarides
Mannan-oligosaccharides are specially purified constituents from the cell walls of the Brewer's yeastalso known as ß-glucans. These complex carbohydrate compounds have a prebiotic effect in the large intestine and help to build up a diverse population of bacteria in the intestine. This leads to health-promoting effects and increases the well-being of the animals.
Medium-chain fatty acids (MKFS)
Medium-chain fatty acids have an inhibitory effect on gram-positive bacteria (e.g. streptococci or clostridia). They thus promote a healthy intestinal flora and contribute to strengthening the connections between the intestinal cells and thus to maintaining the intestinal barrier against harmful germs.
NSP enzymes
Diets enriched with non-starch polysaccharide (NSP) enzymes help poultry digest hard-to-digest carbohydrates more easily. NSP-enzyme-enriched feeds have optimal viscosity and support the intestinal health of the birds. Especially feeds with a high NSP content (e.g. rye, oats or barley) should contain an appropriate feed supplement.
L-Carnitine
L-carnitine is a nutrient that fulfils important tasks in the organism for energy production. This "energy vitamin" is also involved in fat metabolism and the protection of cell membranes. Additional administration with the feed has a positive effect on the heart, immune system and various fertility parameters (e.g. litter rate and number of offspring born).
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is characterised by its antioxidant effect. It regulates hormone metabolism and at the same time stimulates antibody formation, thus improving the animals' immune defence. A deficiency can cause damage to heart and skeletal muscles. A reduced hatching rate is often observed in poultry with vitamin E deficiency.
Vitamin A
Vitamin A is involved in the formation, protection and regeneration of skin and mucous membranes. It also improves fertility and promotes embryonic and foetal development. A deficiency can cause negative changes in the skin and mucous membranes and lead to the death of embryos in the womb.
Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 regulates the calcium and phosphorus metabolism. It also promotes the formation of germ cells and increases the efficiency of the immune system. A deficiency can, for example, cause joint deformities or weaken skeletal stability, which can manifest itself in bone fractures.
Polyphenols
Polyphenols belong to the secondary plant substances. They have an antioxidant effect and supplement the effect of selenium, vitamin C and E. As antioxidants, they protect the cells from free radicals, stabilise the cell membrane and thus strengthen the immune system. The supplementation of targeted polyphenol administrations is recommended for high performance requirements and stress situations.
Phytase
Phytase is a natural enzyme that is microbially derived. It helps to break down the phytate phosphorus contained in plant seeds. As a feed additive, the utilisation of phytin phosphorus is significantly improved for the phosphorus requirements of the animals. Mineral phosphorus in the feed can thus be reduced and a contribution made to relieving the environment.

Selected foods include ..
optigrain®
optigrain® is a cereal mixture made from wheat, maize and barley that has been refined by treatment with the patented, pressure-hydrothermal opticon® process. The treatment breaks down the structure of the starch in the grain. This results in increased overall digestibility, especially for young animals. Furthermore, feeds containing optigrain® have an excellent palatability due to the natural sweetness and the resulting roasted aromas and thus improve the overall feed intake.
Formic/lactic acid
Formic lactic acid has a pH-lowering effect, which improves feed hygiene. The addition lowers the pH value in the stomach, which protects the pig better against pathogens (e.g. salmonella). The combination of formic and lactic acid also has a positive effect on the activity of enzymes. This improves the digestion of the animals and ultimately the growth performance of growing pigs.
Benzoic acid
The effect of benzoic acid unfolds in the stomach and throughout the small intestine. Administered with the daily feed, benzoic acid leads to a lowering of the pH value in the stomach. The reduction of microorganisms in the intestine has a relieving effect on the animals' immune system.
Enzyme ferment
Enzyme enzymes are by-products from solid-state fermentation that contain numerous and very different enzymes. These help the pigs to speed up chemical processes in the body. In sow and piglet feeding, they can increase nutrient and protein availability. They also have prebiotic effects that help stabilise the pH in the gut.
Protein hydrolysate
Protein hydrolysates are highly digestible, animal Proteinbuilding blocks that are absorbed particularly easily and quickly by the body. This demonstrably accelerates the supply of protein to the muscle tissue. In addition, protein hydrolysate contains all the amino acids essential for pigs and promotes feed intake through its high palatability.
Probiotics
Probiotics are viable bacteria and yeast fungi that, when ingested with feed, contribute to gut health and ensure a balanced gut flora. Products containing probiotics can strengthen the animals' defences and performance.
Medium-chain fatty acids (MKFS)
Medium-chain fatty acids have an inhibitory effect on gram-positive bacteria (e.g. streptococci or clostridia). They thus promote a healthy intestinal flora and contribute to strengthening the connections between the intestinal cells and thus to maintaining the intestinal barrier against harmful germs.
L-Carnitine
L-carnitine is a nutrient that fulfils important tasks in the organism for energy production. This "energy vitamin" is also involved in fat metabolism and the protection of cell membranes. Additional administration with the feed has a positive effect on the heart, immune system and various fertility parameters (e.g. litter rate and number of offspring born).

As antioxidants, they protect the cells from free radicals, stabilise the cell membrane and thus strengthen the immune system. The supplementation of targeted polyphenol administrations is recommended for high performance requirements and stress situations.
optiraps®
optiraps® is a high-quality protein feed made from rapeseed meal. Pressure hydrothermal treatment with our patented hydrothermal pressure process technologyopticon® breaks up the fibre components of the rapeseed meal, allowing the fibre to ferment better and increasing the swelling capacity of the feed. Protein digestibility increases as a result of the treatment. The amino acids contained in optiraps® are optimally intermediately available. In addition, the addition improves the acceptance of the feed due to the bread-like smell typical of opticon®.
Phytogenic
Plant substances such as phytogens stimulate appetite and thus help to increase feed intake. At the same time, they promote digestion by increasing the secretion of digestive juices, which in turn improves the absorption of nutrients from the feed. Finally, they promote feed hygiene with their antibacterial properties.
Endotoxin binder
Endotoxins are components of gram-negative bacteria that can trigger inflammatory processes in the organism. The endotoxins have an appetite-suppressing effect and thus reduce the feed intake of your animals. The addition of endotoxin binders in our feeds binds the harmful substances in the intestine and makes them harmless.
Phytase
Phytase is a natural enzyme that is microbially derived. It helps to break down the phytate phosphorus contained in plant seeds. As a feed additive, the utilisation of phytin phosphorus is significantly improved for the phosphorus requirements of the animals. Mineral phosphorus in the feed can thus be reduced and a contribution made to relieving the environment.
