Eastman Protaq

Chickens drink from a farm’s watering system.

What is Protaq?

Protaq acidification solutions were developed to supply organic acid via water and liquid feed to help support overall animal health and optimal performance. Applying free organic acids alone or in combination with monoglycerides of short- and medium-chain fatty acids via water and liquid feeding is a vital part of an overall management strategy. Formic acid can reduce pH in the stomach, while short- and medium-chain monoglycerides help maintain intestinal microbiome balance in swine and poultry.

Better performance

Protaq helps improve gut health, supports overall health and assures good performance. Our products offer flexibility to provide solutions during challenging periods when it is not practical or possible to supply specialty ingredients via feed. During stressful or challenging times, animals do not always eat but often still drink. So applying Protaq via drinking water can be effective.

Litter and fecal quality

Applying Protaq via water through sanitized pipelines can improve bird and piglet performance and have promising effects on litter and fecal quality by reducing diarrhea and looseness.

Application via water

Water is essential for animal nutrition, and water quality directly impacts animal health and performance. Protaq solutions for drinking water are designed to promote stomach acidification, optimize intestinal morphology, support the balance of gut flora and reduce cellular stress.

Liquid feeding

Liquid feeding offers a flexible solution that allows the combination of liquid and solid raw materials. However, it requires careful management due to the presence of common microorganisms such as yeasts, molds and enterobacteria, which can negatively impact animal health. Protaq is designed to help control these pathogenic microorganisms in liquid feed and the gastrointestinal tract of the animal.

Let’s discuss how Protaq can help solve your challenges.
