Amino acids & betaine
Ingredient groups that may be considered in development work focused on feed attraction.
ANIMAL NUTRITION SOLUTIONS / 05
Fish / Aquaculture Solutions
For fish and shrimp feeds, we consider flavour character, feed attractiveness and the active ingredient approach as separate areas.

APPLICATION FOCUS
Flavour and feed attraction: related, distinct topics.
Flavour shapes a product's taste and aroma character. Feed attraction and palatability are broader areas of assessment relating to how the target species approaches and accepts the feed. We develop Aqua solutions without using these concepts interchangeably, considering the target species, feed matrix and production process together.
INGREDIENT APPROACH
Active ingredient groups.
Selection considers the target species, intended use and complete formulation.
Marine ingredients & peptides
Ingredient options considered according to the target species and feed formulation.
Nucleotide group
Options assessed for technical suitability in custom formulation development.
Botanical actives & extracts
Natural isolates and botanical ingredients whose suitability is investigated for the target application.
These headings describe ingredient groups considered during formulation discussions. Final composition and conditions of use are determined for each product.
A FORM SUITED TO YOUR PRODUCTION
The application defines the form.
Powder and liquid options are considered alongside the technical needs of your production process.
- Powder form
- Dispersion, carrier selection and process suitability are considered together in premix and feed blends.
- Liquid form
- Coating or liquid dosing requests are assessed according to the conditions of your production line.
- Custom development
- Formulation work is based on the target species, pelleted or extruded feed structure and application objective.
TASTE & AROMA CHARACTER
Explore Aqua flavours separately.
Fish, shrimp, squid, marine, fish oil, crab and mussel profiles, along with garlic-supported options where needed, are presented separately for the product's flavour character.
TECHNOLOGY THAT SUPPORTS OUR SOLUTIONS
Microencapsulation
and carrier systems.
Suitable carriers and microencapsulation options can be assessed for volatile or sensitive ingredients. Behaviour in water and compatibility with the production process are part of product-specific technical development.

From need to formulation.
A custom project begins with a clear understanding of your application.
- 01
Defining the need
Together, we clarify the target species, intended use and current product structure.
- 02
Technical assessment
We consider the ingredients, carrier, product form and production conditions.
- 03
Application-specific development
We plan formulation options and the necessary sample evaluation.
