CEP PRO is a feed additive for aquaculture produced from farmed polychaetes. It provides high protein and is rich in EPA/DHA. Documented effects include improved palatability, positive nutritional impacts such as better health and feed conversion, and a taste transformation that enhances end-product quality.
Composition- Main ingredient: farmed polychaetes
- High protein content
- Rich in EPA/DHA
- Contains natural osmolytes
Functional benefits- Enhanced palatability: increases feed intake and supports higher biomass production
- Taste transformation: improves perceived freshness and taste of aquaculture products
- Highly digestible: supports nutrient absorption and animal health
- Osmolyte effect: helps maintain cellular water balance during salinity and temperature changes, reducing stress and supporting energy-efficient growth and survival
- pH modulation: decreases pH of feed matrices, further enhancing nutritional value
- Finishing feed use: imparts a fresh taste preferred by customers
Technical benefits for feed production- Patented technology that enhances palatability and functionality
- Viscosity properties assist in lubricating extruders, enabling higher throughput or lower energy consumption
- Feed produced with CEP PRO shows higher durability and reduced dust generation
- Supports more efficient feed production and potential cost savings
