Preservation

Preserve feed, grain and silage quality to protect your animals and investments.

Quality creates value

High-quality feed with low levels of spoilage supports animal health and welfare. It increases production yields, prevents feed losses and allows for efficient poultry, swine, ruminant and aqua feed farm management. This lets you focus on creating value for your feed mill, farm or feed material processing facility.

Feed mills: storage and preservation

You expect high-quality feed with sufficient shelf life to guarantee optimal animal performance. Deviations in feed quality can result in impaired animal performance, production recalls and substantial costs.

Spoiling microbes can be present everywhere and proliferate in the right conditions. Risk control measures tackle these challenges on time. Preservatives can prevent microorganism growth. They protect feed against deterioration and reduce spoilage risks caused by variable temperatures and humidity during transport and storage.

Our solutions inhibit the growth of molds, yeast and bacteria. They also avoid recontamination of feed after production. This extends shelf life and maintains nutritional quality for longer.

On-farm preservation

You work hard sowing seeds, maintaining crops, and dealing with weather and other farming challenges. When it comes to your harvest, why take unnecessary risks?

High-quality feedstuffs support animal health and welfare, increase production and reduce feed losses. This allows for efficient farm management, letting you focus on creating value for your farm.

Eastman offers a range of feed preservatives and silage additives for a variety of forage plants, grain, corn and mixed feeds like total mixed ration (TMR). You can find solutions for varying harvesting conditions, harvesting methods and moisture levels. Our organic acid-based ensiling and preservation solutions have been widely studied and tested in independent research institutes for proof of efficacy.

By-product preservation

The feed industry and livestock farming are champions of the circular economy. Most by-products of the food and biofuel industry are recycled back into animal feed. However, by-products are often sensitive to spoilage caused by mold, yeast or bacterial contamination. Our expertise in organic acid synergies, advanced solutions and our service concept have been developed for efficient management of by-products and monitoring of application accuracy.
