Botanical active options
Phenolic compounds and natural isolates are considered in terms of their suitability for calf applications.
ANIMAL NUTRITION SOLUTIONS / 04
Calf Solutions
For calf nutrition applications, we assess age stage, how the product is used and formulation compatibility together.

APPLICATION FOCUS
Considering calf applications on their own terms.
Calf starter feeds, premixes and suitable liquid feeding applications have different technical requirements. Ingredient selection considers the age stage, method of use, product form and overall blend together. A formulation developed for adult cattle is not transferred directly to a calf application.
INGREDIENT APPROACH
Active ingredient groups.
Selection considers the target species, intended use and complete formulation.
Botanical extracts
Extract groups assessed according to age stage and intended use.
Flavour ingredients
Flavour profiles selected separately for taste and aroma character.
Carrier systems
A carrier approach determined by blend compatibility and application form.
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 and carrier compatibility are considered in starter feed and premix applications.
- Liquid form
- For liquid application requests, miscibility, method of use and formulation compatibility are assessed.
- Custom formulation
- Product-specific development is carried out after defining the age group and application objective.
TECHNOLOGY THAT SUPPORTS OUR SOLUTIONS
Microencapsulation
and carrier systems.
Where sensitive actives need protection, microencapsulation options are assessed. Technology selection takes into account the characteristics of the calf application and the need for product-specific validation.

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.
