EuroTier 2022: Evonik’s System Solutions help address global food challenges

  • Evonik’s System Solutions help producers maintain and boost productivity and profitability
  • New consulting service inoSust® for transparency in sustainability matters
  • Digital tools complement product portfolio of feed ingredients

Essen, Germany. Evonik will be showcasing its comprehensive portfolio of innovative products and solutions aimed at addressing the global challenges facing the animal protein production sector, at this year’s EuroTier.

Rising costs, the global energy crisis and supply chain issues are currently afflicting many industries, including protein production. Producers, who already faced a daily battle to balance business needs with animal welfare and the environment, are now having to grapple with challenges on an unprecedented scale.

Gaetano Blanda, head of Evonik's Animal Nutrition business line, says: “In such volatile times, innovation and knowledge are crucial in finding the right solutions. Evonik understands the complex challenges of feeding a growing world population ethically and sustainably, and our teams have the agility to deal with the consequences of economic uncertainty across the globe.”
By working closely with producers, Evonik has developed System Solutions, which combine science-based products, services and consulting that can be tailored to customer needs, with proven sustainability benefits.

The new inoSust® consulting service helps customers address sustainability challenges, and the Opteinics™ tool makes the impact of feed and meat production transparent and sustainability effects measurable.

Digital solutions such as Porphyrio® and ScreenFloX® help farmers optimize livestock management, make better business decisions, and monitor and manage the pathogen status in their flock before the outbreak of a disease.

Moreover, Evonik’s Gut Health Concept for laying hens, broilers and pigs provides alternative solutions to keep animals healthy and productive without the use of antibiotic growth promoters, while its low protein feeding concept, which relies on supplementation with essential amino acids, aids resource conservation.

Nicholas Guthier, Vice President Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region, says: “We’re excited to be showcasing our solutions to help producers maintain and boost productivity and profitability, while also protecting the planet – all of which is especially important in light of current pressures in the market.”

At the booth, Evonik's experts will also show how silica - as flow additives, anti-caking agents, or as a carrier substance - ensures manufacturing processes are optimized, and further processing of high-quality animal feed runs smoothly.

Evonik will present its full range of products and System Solutions for efficient and sustainable animal protein production at EuroTier 2022 in Hall 21, Booth E20 from 15-18 November, in Hanover, Germany. Visitors will also have the opportunity to explore Evonik’s eBusiness platform myAMINO.
