OUR PURPOSE

Developing innovative, feed additive solutions to enable antibiotic-free and sustainable livestock production.

Global demand for high-quality protein is rising because of increased consumer awareness of protein's role in health and wellbeing. This has intensified the search for sustainable animal and plant-derived protein sources.

WHAT WE DO

We take a holistic approach to optimizing livestock production even in times of challenge, focusing on the interactions between nutrition, the microbiome, and gut and immune function - a state we refer to as ‘nutribiosis.’

This focus defines our approach to optimal livestock production. Achieving a favorable nutribiotic state in the gut enables better growth, maximizes feed utilization, and helps animals cope with stress that would otherwise predispose them to enteric diseases.
