dsm-firmenich Animal Nutrition & Health (ANH) inaugurated a new feed additive plant in Jadcherla, Hyderabad, India. The strategic investment aligns with the government’s “Make in India” initiative and strengthens ANH’s market position and growth strategy in India and the Asia-Pacific region.
The new facility features a manufacturing line for the solutions in Mycotoxin Risk Management and a new warehouse, covering an area of 11,200 square meters. The new state-of-the-art feed additive plant is equipped with advanced Bühler technology and adheres to the highest international standards in quality, safety and environment. It is built adjacent to ANH’s Jadcherla Premix Plant, which has been operating since 2018. Together, the two facilities form an integrated “Super Site”, enabling greater efficiency and faster service for customers.
The local manufacturing of Mycofix® Secure and Mycofix® Shield enables Indian farmers and feed producers to tackle increasingly complex mycotoxin challenges arising from climate change and improper harvesting conditions. Mycofix® solutions protect animal health and food safety by deactivating a broad spectrum of mycotoxins that contaminate farm animal feed.
Lu Yuan, vice president Greater APAC, Animal Nutrition & Health dsm-firmenich, commented: “This new plant is a strategic milestone for ANH in Greater APAC, our first feed additive plant in India, and a powerful step forward in serving our customers with speed, efficiency, and innovation. 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. This is our vision in action: customer at the heart, sustainability in our DNA, and leading through innovation for the future of animal farming.”
“This new plant brings us closer to our customers and strategic partners in India. We are very proud to serve our customers with feed additives made in India that meet the highest international standards in quality and safety,” said Puneet Pokhriyal, Director OU West, Animal Nutrition & Health, dsm-firmenich.
