• Feed

  Feed

  To ensure safety in the food chain and the health of humans and animals, feed is tested for its properties and the process of feed production is monitored. The primary objective here is to guarantee that animals have healthy lives. The safety of the feed can only be guaranteed through enhanced quality control. Regulation 767/2009 regulates the marketing and use/feeding of feedstuffs and provides better information for users and consumers.

  bilacon GmbH is an approved QS feed laboratory and helps with the evaluation and assessment of feed:

  • Weender analysis (standard method of determining the contents of feed)
  • FEDIAF comparison CHECK (nutritional guidelines for complete feed for dogs and cats)
  • Review of marketability
  • Microbiological tests
  • Inspection for undesirable substances e.g. pesticides, mycotoxins, dioxins, ...
