I support pet food manufacturers, ingredient suppliers and brands with dry food, wet food, treats, palatability and specialist diets \u2014 from formulation and feasibility studies to production and factory establishment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dry pet food development<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Formulation, extrusion, drying, coating and palatability support for kibble \u2014 from concept to factory production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Treats and functional products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Development of treats and functional concepts with a focus on texture, ingredients and practical production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\n

Ingredient strategy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Technical evaluation of proteins, hydrolysates and functional ingredients for pet food applications.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Feasibility studies, business plans, process design and practical support through factory establishment and scale-up.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Technical troubleshooting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Palatability & acceptance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Palatability is more than a coating. I work with raw materials, hydrolysates, flavour systems, fat and flavour application, texture and processing to improve acceptance of dry food, wet food and treats. Structured trials connect the animal\u2019s response with formulation and production choices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specialist diets & preventive nutrition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I support the development of dietetic pet foods for particular nutritional purposes and preventive nutrition concepts, including renal, digestive and urinary nutrition. Work covers nutrient targets, ingredient selection, palatability, processing and trials, with intended uses and claims considered for each market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
