Layn Natural Ingredients has publicized the launch of a new line of poultry and swine feed additives with water-soluble polyphenols. The company will be showcasing these solutions on January 28-30 at the 2025 International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) in Atlanta, USA.
One of the world’s largest innovators of natural botanical extract ingredients and solutions, Layn Natural Ingredients has announced the launch of a line of feed additives for poultry and swine production that leverages the advantages of water delivery for polyphenols. These cutting-edge solutions will be showcased at booth #A515 during the International Production and Processing Expo (IPPE) taking place in Atlanta, Georgia, USA on January 28-30, 2025.
The introduction of water-soluble polyphenol additives marks a significant advancement in production animal nutrition, Layn explains. By administering polyphenols via drinking water, farm managers gain full control over their use, allowing precise adjustments to type, dosage, and treatment duration to address specific animal needs. This method offers several advantages over traditional feed supplementation:
• Immediate Availability: Polyphenols delivered in drinking water are accessible to animals almost instantly, ensuring rapid efficacy.
• Reduced Administration Delays: Unlike feed-based supplementation, which requires feed mill processing and delivery, water delivery eliminates storage and logistical complications.
• Mitigation for Heat-Stressed Animals: Animals experiencing heat stress may reduce feed intake but consistently consume drinking water, making water-soluble polyphenols an ideal solution for maintaining health and productivity.
Layn’s innovative solutions for poultry production include applications for heat stress reduction, mycotoxin toxicity mitigation, and egg quality improvement. In swine production, the mycotoxin toxicity reduction benefits are also effective when delivered through drinking water, Layn points out.
The new line includes functional polyphenols such as:
• TruGro HS, formulated with flavonoids, supports effective heat stress management by enhancing feed intake and reducing the negative impact of oxidative stress on growth rates.
• TruGro MYC, formulated with polyphenols enriched with proanthocyanidins, helps mitigate the effects of residual mycotoxins, protecting cells and tissues, and supporting overall health and vitality.
• TruGro EQ, derived from catechins, improves egg production and egg quality.
“Water delivery of polyphenols represents a game-changing approach in production animal nutrition,” says Mary Joe Fernandez, Global VP of Sales and Business Development at Layn Natural Ingredients. “This innovation not only simplifies the supplementation process but also ensures animals receive critical nutrients when they need them most.”
