Market Definition

Specialty feed additives are defined as the non-nutritive functional ingredients that are used to enhance animal health and optimize feed efficiency. These additives are used in small quantities and are typically targeted, high-value products with a specific functional role. These are specific ingredients designed to serve a particular purpose when used in the correct concentrated form. The inclusion of these additives enhances the overall nutritional composition of feed and improves its storage stability. These components are recognized for their essential role in ensuring proper nutrition and promoting the overall health and well-being of animals.

According to the European Food Safety Authority, “Feed additives are products used in animal nutrition to achieve an effect on the feed itself, on the animals, on food products obtained from the animals consuming the feed additive, or on the environment. For instance, feed additives are used to enhance the flavor of feed, to meet the need for certain nutrients, or to increase the performance of animals in good health. They are used in feed for food-producing animals and in pet food.”

According to the European Commission, “Feed additives are defined as products used in animal nutrition for the purpose of improving the quality of feed and the quality of food from animal origin, or to improve the animals’ performance and health, e.g., providing enhanced digestibility of the feed materials. Feed additives may not be put on the market unless authorization has been given, following a scientific evaluation demonstrating that the additive has no harmful effects on human and animal health and the environment.
