The pet food market is demanding low ash chicken meals as well as chicken meat meals. IQI is partnering with dedicated premium meat meals and powder producers. Also, low FFA chicken fat is in strong demand, stabilised with natural anti-oxidants and chicken hydrolysed protein is our latest add-on in liquid form.
Chicken meat powder (CMP) is by no means comparable to chicken meal due to the differences in raw materials and processing techniques. The chicken carcasses used as the raw material do not contain any grains – guaranteeing a gluten-free final product. By removing the bones and fat, CMP is turned into a low-calorie ingredient that contains at least 75% crude protein. It is low in fat, ash, and calcium but full of essential electrolytes. Low temperature spray drying is used to increase shelf life and to conserve the valuable benefits and bioactivities of the protein and amino acid structures.
EU certified
As confirmed by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), all of IQI's imported animal proteins from Europe which comply with EU Regulation 1069/2009, once further processed into petfood in the U.S. are eligible for export from the U.S. to the EU.
