IFF, one of the global players in the animal nutrition and health sector, will offer two newly approved animal nutrition solutions in Canada, Enviva® PRO for poultry and Syncra® SWI for swine.
Danisco Animal Nutrition & Health, a business unit of IFF, announced it has received approval from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) for Enviva® PRO and Syncra® SWI. The incorporation of the newly approved feed solutions in poultry and swine diets will allow producers in Canada to benefit from more consistent animal performance throughout the year.
Enviva® PRO – a multi-strain viable microbial product (VMP)– is currently used in more than 50 countries and supported by extensive scientific research. It blends three Bacillus VMP strains which support the growth of beneficial bacteria and improve feed conversion ratios in broilers, layers, ducks and turkeys1.
“We are delighted to receive the formal recognition from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) that Enviva® PRO and Syncra® SWI are equally safe and effective for use in animals,” said Regina Cortada, North America Animal Nutrition & Health leader, IFF. “With this regulatory approval as a gut modifier, we will be able to provide solutions to meet the unique needs of the Canadian poultry and swine segments and expand our footprint in the Canadian market. We look forward to helping customers in the region develop tailored nutritional feed strategies that not only deliver excellent animal performance, but also provide a return on investment.”
Syncra® SWI is a combination of VMP and a protease enzyme. It is a highly effective feed additive with an agile enzyme-producing capacity which adapts to different feed ingredients2. This action significantly improves energy and amino acid digestibility in grower and finisher pigs3. With Syncra® SWI, livestock will benefit from the full nutritional value of their feed, resulting in strong overall performance and therefore, a profitable return for swine producers3.
By balancing nutrition, microbiome, and the gut and immune function, both solutions contribute to a favorable nutribiotic state, enabling animals to focus on growth. Canadian producers can now benefit the same performance improvements of Enviva® PRO and Syncra® SWI that the U.S. poultry and swine sectors have enjoyed, particularly from a feed-conversion aspect.
