Fibres and germs for animal feed

Tereos supplies a range of fibre-rich ingredients for livestock (ruminants, swine, poultry).

Complementary products for animal feed

By fully processing all parts of their agricultural raw materials, Tereos facilities extract a whole range of fibre-rich ingredients from wheat, corn and potatoes for ruminants, swine and poultry. These contain a significant level of protein and energy in the form of starch.

Fibres and germs

Obtained during the sugar and starch extraction process, and more broadly from the production chain, fibres and germs intended for animal feed take the form of wheat or corn gluten (Amyplus and Amygold), dehydrated or pressed pulps and grains.

Prodeed® Soluble fibres for animal nutrition are also obtained from transformation of sugar beet’s sugar.

Dried pulps

Dried and pressed pulps are the main by-products of beet sugar, and they are primarily used for cattle feed. They provide a supplementary source of energy alongside farm fodder, while freeing up land for marketable crops.

Grains

Grains, a distillery by-product, are characterised by high protein content. They provide alternatives to soya meal or rapeseed meal in animal feed. They are local proteins produced from French crops and are not genetically modified.

Gluten feed

Gluten feed, a fibre-rich by-product, comes from the production of wheat starch and corn starch. It provides a balanced source of protein and energy available throughout the year in the form of granules. It is produced from local crops and is not genetically modified.

Profeed®

Profeed® is an ingredient composed of soluble fibres named Fructo-Oligosaccharides (FOS), obtained from the transformation of sugar beet’s sugar. They are prebiotics acting on good bacteria in the gut for a balanced flora, called microbiota. These health benefits have been described in many clinical studies on different species for more than 30 years. Profeed® improves health and well-being in pets, as well as livestock performance.

Profeed® Advanced

The Profeed® range also includes Profeed® Advanced, a compound food developed in partnership with Lallemand, which helps to boost the immune defences of older or immuno-compromised dogs.

This patented innovation is based on the combination of Profeed®, a prebiotic fibre, with unique yeast products, for a synergistic effect. Thanks to the complementary mechanisms of action of these ingredients, Profeed® Advanced enables dogs to live longer, in good health.
