Premium Danish quality since 1884
Only barley of good quality is used as raw material. The barley grains are heated in a moist state to 140-150 °C for a few seconds. Thereby the starch is gelatinized, and the digestibility of the barley is increased. The gelatinized grains become NutriFlakes by a special thin flaking of the kernels in hot and plastic state, followed by a rapid cooling. The combination of thermal and mechanical treatment increases carbohydrate digestibility.
Used for young animals and animals with a short intestine. The thin-flaked form of NutriFlakes is well suited as a structural feed. The gelatinization process ensures that the digestive enzymes of the animals have easier access to the carbohydrate fractions in the grain, which speeds up the digestive process. This is particularly important for animals with a short intestine or young animals without a fully developed digestive system. During the gelatinization process the grain structure opens, thus increasing the water and fat absorption capacity significantly.
