Pregelatinised wheat flours for milk substitutes for the optimal feeding of young animals.

For the development and subsequent performance of young animals such as calves, piglets or lambs, the selection of high-quality raw materials for milk substitutes and prestarters in the first months of life is decisive. Healthy development is only possible with a constant and specially adapted composition of nutrients, milk substitutes and prestarters. Apart from the feed quality, the ingredients and digestibility are of key importance when it comes to ensuring optimum feeding. Here, the use of highly digestible, extruded wheat pregelatinised flours for milk substitutes and prestarters has proven their worth.

The benefits of the Crespovit®  Flour pregelatinised flours or milk substitutes:

  • Rapid energy absorption through highly digestible nutrient replacement
  • Natural, GMO-free ingredients
  • No clumping due to better solubility
  • Optimum water binding (up to 1:6)
  • Adjustment of the desired cold viscosity in the process
  • No emulsion liquefaction through inactivation of the enzymes
  • Challenging raw materials are optimally bound
  • Reduces product sedimentation

Crespovit® Flour – Wheat-based nutrient substitute for young animals.

Crespeo’s Crespovit® Flour pregelatinised flours provide young animals with valuable, highly digestible nutrients in milk substitutes and prestarters. With the pregelatinised flours, the energy can rapidly be absorbed by calves, piglets and lambs. Depending on the needs, the application rate of the pregelatinised flours ranges between 5–15 % in the feed mixes and milk substitutes. Crespovit® Flour, with at least 75% digested starch, promotes the tolerance of vegetable, wheat-based carbohydrates and enriches the feed with important nutrients, thanks to the soluble proteins from the pregelatinised flour. The good solubility of the pregelatinised flours leads to a homogeneous solution, thereby reducing disturbances in feed intake and sedimentation of the product in the feeding technique. The highly digestible, extruded Crespovit® Flour pregelatinised flours for milk substitutes and prestarters are particularly suitable for the stabilisation of fatty systems and are ideal as a binding agent and carrier material of fatty products. The flour is sterilised, thereby avoiding microbiological activities and minimising contamination with pathogens.

Crespovit® Flour – pregelatinised flours, as a binding agent and carrier material for special feed.

Apart from the use of pregelatinised flours for milk substitutes and prestarters, our Crespovit® Flour products are suited as a natural binding agent for feed pellets, as well as a release agent/carrier material for special feed.

Properties of pregelatinised flours:

  • Rapidly available carbohydrates and proteins
  • Good binding (also with challenging raw materials)
  • Stabilisation of fat-containing systems
  • High solubility and stirrability

Application areas of pregelatinised flours:

  • Natural source of carbohydrates and proteins in milk substitutes and prestarters
  • As a binding agent for feed pellets
  • As a release agent and carrier material for special feed
  • To optimise press runability and simultaneously increase production efficiency
