ANH’s new site will manufacture Mycofix Secure and Mycofix Shield products. It aims to support Indian farmers and feed manufacturers to address the growing mycotoxin issues caused by climate change and poor harvesting practices. Additionally, it will help safeguard animal health and food safety by neutralising various mycotoxins found in animal feed.
The new site is the company’s first feed additive plant in India and aligns with the Government’s “Make in India” initiative. Additionally, it strengthens ANH’s position and growth strategy in India and the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region.
Lu Yuan, vice president of Greater APAC at Animal Nutrition & Health DSM-Firmenich, called the new plant a ‘strategic milestone’ for ANH in the region.
“By producing Mycofix locally in India, we enhance our ability to serve customers across the Asia-Pacific region, supporting our growth strategy and meeting growing demand,” he added.
