The Mediterranean Diet is widely regarded as one of the most balanced and health-promoting dietary patterns worldwide.

Processing
- World-class Kibble through improved Heat Transfer Solutions
Many pet owners are no longer content with an off-the-shelf, dry-rendered kibble that’s lacking in flavor and nutritional value. Pet owners are now demanding the same standards for their companions’ food as they are for their own, which means higher fresh meat inclusion. This is only possible when using ingredients from trusted farms and fisheries and the best processing equipment available. - Flexible Production Solutions for Petfood at Interzoo 2026
