Explore our nutritional solutions designed to support your unique requirements:
Cows:
- Transition Feeding
The transition period from late pregnancy to early lactation is critical for dairy cows. Without targeted support, cows may face risks that affect their health and productivity. We support this phase with X-Zelit, Lactoval Liquid, and Vilofoss Energy Boost, providing essential nutrients and bioactive compounds to ease the transition.

- Improved Longevity in Cows
Dairy cows often have a productive lifespan of only 3 to 4 years. By focusing on improved longevity, farmers can reduce replacement costs and increase overall productivity. We provide specialized solutions with X-Zelit for nutritional support, HooFoss for hoof management, and Stalosan for barn hygiene to help enhance cow longevity.

- High Temperatures – A Challenge for Cows
Summer heat and humidity can significantly impact high-yielding dairy cows, leading to decreased feed intake and increased health risks. Our solutions, CoolFoss and FreshFoss, help maintain feed quality and support cow comfort during warm weather.

- Protein Feeding – Less Is More
With growing demands for efficient protein use, we offer ProtiSpar to optimize feed rations, helping reduce nitrogen waste without affecting productivity.

Pigs:
- Vital Piglets – Better Weaning
Weaning piglets can be challenging, often leading to stress, digestive issues, and increased susceptibility to disease. Our solutions include Fib-O-Min to enhance gut health, AcidFoss to support digestive function, and ContraFlam Advanced to help manage stress during this transition. Together, they assist piglets in adjusting to solid feed.

- Improved Longevity in Sows
Longer-lived sows reduce the need for frequent replacement gilts, lower costs, and improve overall herd health. We support longer lifespans with Stalosan F for a pathogen-free environment, Kani-Stopp for managing stress in replacement gilts, and Summer Comfort for heat stress relief. Together, these solutions create a healthier living space for your sows.

- Feed Efficiency
Feed efficiency is essential in animal farming, reflecting how well livestock converts feed into outputs like milk or meat. NutriSpar helps optimize nutrient absorption, which can reduce feed costs and minimize waste.

Poultry:
- Welfare for Poultry
Supporting poultry welfare is key for flock health and productivity. We offer targeted products such as PECKStone to promote natural pecking behavior and reduce stress, MeidArom to repel pests, and Laying-Plus as a metabolic activator to enhance nutrition in laying hens. Additionally, Stalosan F contributes to better hygiene by controlling pathogens and lowering ammonia levels, improving overall conditions for your birds.

- Enhancing Eggshell Quality
Maintaining eggshell quality in older layers can be challenging. Over time, their eggshells weaken, leading to an increased number of cracked or broken eggs, which reduces profitability. ShellFoss strengthens eggshells using a unique blend of organic trace elements, fermented plant extracts, and vitamins.
