The first step in ensuring quality – sourcing raw materials from a select group of approved, certified vendors. Then the materials are verified and validated through on-site testing followed by our stringent tracking system.

Every pound of every ingredient is identified by a lot number upon arrival in our new industry-defining premix facility. This lot number follows the material throughout the manufacturing process to your facility. Everything is controlled, from start to finish.

We are committed to helping our customers deliver pet foods and treats that meet the growing demand for safe and traceable ingredients. All inbound deliveries are first inspected before ingredients are received into our facility by completing checks on the condition of the trailer, bags and product. From there, testing and quality assurance procedures are executed by our expert staff to ensure that nothing is left to chance.

WHY PREMIXES?

ADM premixes combine concentrated and difficult to handle ingredients into a single flowable mixture to simplify the storage and weighing of ingredients at your facilities. Premixes provide essential nutrients required in micro and trace amounts and allow better dispersion of vitamins and trace minerals within finished products.

WHY DRY INGREDIENT BLENDS?

ADM provides customized ingredient solutions to meet your specific needs (custom blend formulas, flexible packaging and shipping options, diverse ingredient portfolio, etc.) while freeing up your ingredient inventory constraints by combining purposeful ingredients into a single, flowable blend.
