What is Pelleting?
Pelleting, or compounding as it is sometimes known, is a process
in which multiple raw materials are blended together, ground, bound
with liquids then pressed and cut into hardened pellets. The
process also includes a heating and conditioning phase in which the
meal is cooked mixed ensuring even distribution of all ingredients
in the finished feed. Pelleted feeds are common in the
ruminant and equine sectors and small pellets are also widely used
in small pet feeds to provide a correctly balanced mineral
supplement.
Benefits of Pelleted Products
The pelleting process allows a many raw materials to be combined
in relatively small quantities to create a nutritionally balanced
feed. Micro-additions of high value minerals can be incorporated
and even distribution throughout the mix can be assured. Pellets
are an excellent way of delivering high quality balanced nutrition
to animals either as a complete feed or as a component in a
diet.
