DuPont Animal Nutrition showcases new phytogenic blend product at IPPE

At the recent International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) in Atlanta, Georgia, US, DuPont will showcase Enviva^® EO, a nature identical phytogenic blend that is designed to fit into any nutritional health strategy and support the consistent improvement of feed intake.

Enviva^® EO will be available in both the US and Latin America markets in the coming months.

The product is a combination of two compounds, Thymol and Cinnamaldehyde, which were carefully selected for their synergistic benefits for boosting feed intake, thereby stimulating the release of digestive enzymes and improving intestinal development. Through this action, Enviva^® EO also helps increase nutrient absorption, directing energy toward the animal's growth.

The product is the latest development under nutribiosis, that focuses on the interaction between nutrition, microbiome and gut, as well as immune function. DuPont believes that taking a holistic view is essential – a view that considers how everything that is fed to an animal combines and interacts in the intestinal tract.

Through the lens of nutribiosis, DuPont is investing in science and innovation to help producers improve performance, increase livability and support welfare in the face of increasing pressure to reduce or remove antibiotics from production systems.

"We believe by asking questions and taking customer-specific measurements, our extensive nutritional health expertise can discover integrated, tailored solutions for our partners most pressing issues and problems," said Dawn Overby, global segment leader of DuPont Animal Nutrition.

"The solutions can always be found in the science, and we use our expertise to deliver optimum dosing recommendations that are targeted to a customer's unique ingredients, species, geography and budget," said Overby.
