Our Inspiration

An inspiring purpose for us to develop innovative, high-quality products with superior results—aimed at enhancing our partners' competitiveness and contributing to the building of more prosperous societies.

Our Focus

Food production is surrounded by multiple factors needing control, such as fungal and bacterial infestations, oxidation, and low nutrient availability. These variables limit and affect quality and profitability. Therefore, we seek to be a strategic ally for our clients, creating value through our divisional solutions.

Solutions We Offer

Special ingredients for the maximization and improvement of operations

• Disinfectants: Bio-Clean™ is a 100% natural disinfectant with proven high microbicidal efficacy, highly desirable organoleptic and ecological features, suitable for disinfection and decontamination processes in the livestock industry and food processing for human consumption. The main problems during food storage are fungal and bacterial contamination, which affect health risks and economic losses. The use of fungal and bacterial inhibitors is the best practical alternative to control these issues effectively.
• Antioxidants: Antioxidants are synthetic or natural compounds primarily functioning to stabilize or reduce oxidation reactions that degrade high-value nutrients such as amino acids, fats, oils, carbohydrates, vitamins, and other highly susceptible compounds. Oxidation causes aldehyde formation, reactions between carbohydrates and amino acids, peroxide formation, and polymer formation, leading to nutritional deterioration and harmful substances. ADIQUIM offers solutions to prevent and control oxidation in various ingredients and finished products.
• Chealators: Chealators are metal ions bound to a compound for producing mineral stability and improved absorption in the animal's digestive tract. Connecting minerals to amino acids enhances bioavailability compared to inorganic salts like oxides, sulfates, and carbonates, which often dissociate into free ions and can have variable absorption. Our chelated minerals can be used according to specific production system needs, providing targeted mineral delivery to enzyme systems and tissues.
• Agglomerants: Agglomerants improve and maintain the quality of pellets in processed animal feed. Dull or weak pellets lead to ingredient separation, excess dust, and higher losses. These products ensure durable, uniform pellets, improving feed conversion and reducing wastage.
