Glycerides
Glycerides - for a healthy, high-performing animal
Glycerides are natural, pH independent, strong anti-bacterial and anti-viral molecules, which directly affect the gastro-intestinal tract. They combat gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria as well as fat coated virus, depending on the chain length of the fatty acid.

Glycerides emerge from the esterification of fatty acids and a glycerine molecule. Their unique mode of action and characteristics result in strong anti-bacterial and anti-viral effects. They can be used as alternative to the preventative use of antibiotics.
We already offer a broad portfolio of standardised products in this field, but we also offer individual, custom made solutions according to your needs.
Why glycerides?
Advantages due to the usage of fatty acids:
- Anti-bacterial effective independent of pH
- Water soluble
- Odourless
Advantages due to the usage of short chain glyceride mixtures:
- anti-bacterial effect against gram-negative bacteria such as Salmonella
- Support gut villi development
Advantage due to the usage of medium chain glyceride mixtures:
- Anti-bacterial effects against gram-positive bacteria, specifically against Clostridia or Streptococci, as well as E. Coli, yeasts and mould.
Our glycerides are exclusively sold in German, Swiss and Austrian region. Although, we work on a continuous basis to develop the product range and expand our distribution channels.
