Leading solutions for handling animal raw materials
Recovering nature's resources with innovative separation solutions
The world’s population is growing fast, and new methods are needed in order to continue to be able to feed people and animals alike. What is more, consumers’ buying preferences are changing, too: They are more conscientious in fulfilling their daily needs but are also aware of the impact this has on nature’s resources.
Sustainable and innovative processes
It is no secret that substantial parts of the animals we consume are discarded because they are not edible (e.g. skin or bones). But fortunately, sustainable ways of processing these parts are rapidly increasing and helping to ensure that a growing number of nature’s resources can be recovered and returned to the food and feed chain in the form of useful ingredients, such as protein, peptides, gelatin, collagen, fats or minerals. Like food manufacturers, ANDRITZ is also adjusting to consumers’ demands for natural, pure and allergen-free nutrients and has, therefore, developed new ways to secure nature’s gifts, with innovative process solutions that turn animal raw materials into sustainable food, feed and fuel ingredients.
A partner that broadens your perspective and uncovers opportunities
In the ANDRITZ global pilot plants, new ways are determined of handling raw materials of animal origin, such as skin, bones, blood, feathers, but also insects, e.g. black soldier flies, and marine by-products. Tests are conducted by experienced staff to assist manufacturers in their quest for the right equipment in their efforts to optimize the digestibility of products and thus ensure, for instance, proper conversion of feed to meat/muscle. Whether you are a globally operating company or a small start-up, our experienced personnel is at your disposal to support and guide you and also make sure that you find the right process for your specific application.
Key application areas
Whether you’re producing animal-based protein, gelatin, peptides, collagen, fats and minerals, or protein from black soldier flies, we have the in-depth process knowledge and a range of technologies to help make your operation successful.
The right solution for your separation challenge
