Healthy Pets are Happy Pets
Highly palatable solid oral dosage forms are critical for veterinary care, yet notoriously elusive. Our solutions, including the naturally sourced Starch 1500®, offer much-needed wins for veterinary medicinal product (VMP) manufacturing – and, ultimately, our animal friends.
Veterinary health products are not considered palatable if consumption requires food mixing or forced intake — an ongoing hindrance in formulation and animal care. As a National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) Preferred Supplier, we support veterinary medicinal product development by designing for all elements of palatability, including taste and mouthfeel. Topped with our packaging solutions, our core and coating expertise is key to pet health.
