The majority of all lamb that is used in the pet food industry originates from by-products of lamb meat production from Australia and New Zealand. This makes lamb fat, lamb meal, frozen lamb plucks, and frozen lamb MDM more sustainable ingredient choices. Australia and New Zealand have the perfect geographical and climate conditions for sheep farming for wool or for meat. An often-forgotten element of Oceanian sheep farming is that it is all free range. IQI specializes in supplying this high-quality pet food ingredient and offers year-round availability of this seasonal product.
Lamb meal is an excellent source of high-quality protein, fats, and other essential nutrients, such as minerals and a wide range of amino acids. High-quality rendered lamb tissues, such as skeletal muscle and internal organs, are dried and ground into a meal. IQI has a strict supplier approval program and 25+ years of experience in sourcing, upgrading, and providing lamb meal. Our lamb meal facilities in Europe and North America perform quality control and the screening and cleaning of the lamb meal, removing all foreign bodies. This ensures a pure, clean, and high-quality product that is ready-to-use. IQI lamb meal consists of 55-62% proteins, 16-24% minerals and 10-15% fats.
