Full-Fat Toasted & Extruded Soybeans
Maximum protein and oil availability for animal nutrition
In summary
- Fully extruded full-fat soybeans with strong water absorption
- Supports stable structure and digestion in piglet feed
- High protein content (~358 g/kg) with excellent digestibility
- Superior oil availability (up to 91%) through open cell structure
- More efficient than using soy meal plus separate oil
- Optimal reduction of ANFs and bitter substances for higher intake
- Widely applicable in pig, poultry and petfood formulations
Premium quality extruded full-fat soybeans
Extruded Full-Fat Soybeans are developed as a high-value ingredient for modern animal nutrition. Through a combination of complete toasting and advanced extrusion, both soy protein and natural oil become maximally available for the animal.
This makes the product especially valuable in feeds focused on performance, growth and feed efficiency. The processing method intensively opens the cell structure of the soybean, allowing animals to utilize protein and energy far better than with standard soy products.
Optimal protein availability without overheating
During the controlled extrusion process, soybeans are carefully heated under pressure and friction. The result is a highly digestible protein source. Because the protein is not damaged by excessive heat, its nutritional quality remains intact. With a crude protein content of approximately 358 g/kg, this ingredient forms a strong basis for high-performance feed formulations.
Functional benefits for piglets: water binding and gut stability
Extruded full-fat soybeans not only supply nutrients, but also provide functional advantages especially important for young animals. Due to the intensive heat treatment, the ingredient shows good water-absorbing capacity. This contributes to stable behavior in the piglet digestive tract and supports smooth digestion.
Strong reduction of anti-nutritional factors and bitter substances
A key benefit of the complete toasting and extrusion treatment is the reduction of anti-nutritional factors (ANFs). These compounds can limit nutrient uptake, particularly in young animals. Intensive processing creates a safe, palatable ingredient that enhances feed intake and animal performance. Bitter substances are also significantly reduced, improving taste in compound feeds.
Superior oil utilization: better than soy meal plus added oil
Another major advantage is the exceptionally high availability of soybean oil. Extrusion fully opens the cell structure, allowing the natural oil to be released and absorbed efficiently. This provides a clear benefit compared to rations where soy meal is combined with separately added vegetable oil. In extruded full-fat soybeans, protein and energy are present in one natural matrix, supporting more stable feed performance. Oil availability can reach approximately 91%, making the product highly attractive for energy-rich diets.
Specific benefits for pig nutrition
In pig production, an optimal start is crucial. Extruded full-fat soybeans are particularly suitable for piglet feeds due to their high digestibility and reduced ANF load. They support gut health and growth during the early life stage. In sow diets, the product provides an efficient combination of protein and energy, supporting body condition and milk production.
Ideal ingredient for poultry feed
For broilers and laying hens, stable energy supply and amino acid balance are essential. This product delivers high-quality soy protein together with readily available oil energy. It is therefore well suited for feed concepts targeting growth, feed conversion and production efficiency.
Valuable raw material for premium petfood
In petfood formulations, demand is increasing for natural and highly digestible protein sources. Extruded full-fat soybeans provide a neutral taste, high nutritional value and functional properties. This makes them an excellent ingredient in premium dog and cat food where consistency and digestibility are key.
