Animal feed producer

Van Tuijl Feed Enrichment is a family business that has been processing high-quality raw materials for the animal feed industry since 1962, focusing on young animal nutrition. As a leading animal feed producer, Van Tuijl offers a wide range of products and services for feed manufacturers looking for tailored solutions. Utilizing modern technology and extensive expertise, the company supplies finely ground soybean meal and extruded flour products such as lupine flour, wheat flour, and pea flour. These high-quality ingredients are crucial for the health and growth of young animals, including calves, piglets, and chicks.

Production process

Van Tuijl’s production process is fully focused on delivering high-quality raw materials. The feed producer uses advanced technologies to extrude, finely grind, and mix raw materials according to customer specifications. This ensures that Van Tuijl’s products meet the highest standards regarding nutritional value and digestibility, two crucial factors in young animal nutrition.

Our services

Fine grinding
An important part of the process, where raw materials are ground to as fine as 50 microns. This contributes to improved nutrient absorption by young animals, which is essential during early growth stages. Additionally, fine grinding ensures that the raw materials are homogeneously mixed with other nutrients.

Extrusion
An essential process within Van Tuijl’s production chain. The extrusion process reduces anti-nutritional factors in the raw materials, leading to better digestibility and nutrient absorption by young animals. Furthermore, extrusion improves the hygienic quality of the final product, thereby reducing the risk of contamination.

In addition to finely grinding and extrusion, Van Tuijl also offers mixing, pelleting, drying, and sieving as services. This enables feed manufacturers to utilize a complete processing chain within a single company, increasing efficiency and ensuring consistent product quality.

Focus on young animal nutrition

Van Tuijl specifically focuses on the production of raw materials for young animal nutrition. The young animal feed market demands products that are not only nutritious but also highly digestible and safe for young animals. To meet these requirements, Van Tuijl produces extruded flour products that are rich in protein and easily digestible. This makes them highly suitable for young animal nutrition, where animals often have a sensitive digestive system.

Products

Extruded soybean meal
One of the main products supplied by Van Tuijl to the animal feed industry. Soy is known for its high protein content and essential amino acids, making it an excellent source of plant-based proteins for young animal nutrition. The extruded form ensures that the soybean meal is more digestible and that the nutrients are better absorbed by the animal.

Extruded lupine flour, wheat flour and pea flour
Also of great importance for young animal nutrition. These flour products provide a wide range of nutrients, such as fibers, proteins, and carbohydrates, contributing to the overall health and growth of young animals. The extruded variants of these flours improve their digestibility and make them better suited for young animals with a sensitive digestive system.

Quality assurance and certification

As an animal feed producer, Van Tuijl is aware of the importance of quality and food safety. The company complies with all relevant standards and holds the necessary certifications, such as GMP+ FSA (Requirements or Technical Specifications) and GMP+ FRA (Feed Responsibility Assurance). This ensures that all products supplied by Van Tuijl meet the highest quality requirements and are safe for use in animal feed.

Quality management at Van Tuijl is closely monitored by a team of experts. Continuous monitoring and testing of raw materials and final products guarantee that the products are consistently of high quality. Moreover, Van Tuijl strives to continuously optimize its processes to comply with the increasingly stringent regulations within the animal feed industry.
