The jury report

“Every consumer wants a clean, reliable and safe piece of meat on his plate, and Palital is well on its way to conquer the world with an additive for animal feed called butyrate (Intest-Plus), which is free of antibiotics. The jury is enthusiastic about Palital’s contribution to the health of humans and animals. By using this alternative to antibiotics, they contribute to combating the risks to public health. Unique to Palital is that they control the entire process themselves at their impressive company in Velddriel, the Netherlands. At this location, apart from butyrate concepts, they also develop slow release urea.”
