Pigextra®

A natural feed additive for piglets and sows

Pigextra® is a new generation feed additive for swine responsibly made to keep their digestive systems balanced and protected

A wide range of properties 
in one compound

Pigextra® is a high-performance feed additive made from upcycled lignin, the natural fiber responsible for plant’s protection and strength. Pigextra® promotes a balanced gut biome, supports better nutrient absorption and immunity. It helps strengthen the gut barrier function, bind and remove toxins and irritants and reduces stress. The result is healthier and more resilient animals.

Good news for your planet and your bottom line too.

With a wide spectrum of properties in one single compound the impact goes beyond just healthy development and better growth. As Pigextra® strengthens and protects the gut, it can also help reduce mortality, help prevent diseases and thereby the need for antibiotics to control them. And with better nutrient absorption comes better growth, reduced feed costs and less ammonia emissions that can do harm to local eco-systems.

A product for both farmers and feed manufacturers.

Pigextra® can be used both as a supplement by farmers, or be mixed into an existing feed formulation by manufacturers. The product is both easy to store and handle and the shelf life is three years. Pigextra® is safe, tested and GMP+ certified.
