WE ADD VALUE TO YOUR PRODUCTS
FSMS: 14800
Since I founded KUGE Invest as a sole proprietorship in 1988, the challenges involved with supplying a fast growing world population with safe, affordable and sustainably produced food have evolved tremendously, along with an ever increasing focus on the environment and animal welfare.
Since then, the KUGE Group has grown into an internationally recognised expert in specialty additives for the Feed & Food Industry, with sales in over 50 countries worldwide.
This brochure intends to give you, our valued customers and business partners, a general overview of our group, our international activities and the portfolio of high quality speciality products developed by our R&D teams.
KUGE Invest is a Belgian family-owned holding company with subsidiaries in several countries, including two production sites in the Benelux that allow us to be flexible while maintaining high quality standards and ensuring ample production capacity.
We aim to be a reliable partner for our customers, distributors and end-users alike, in all the markets in which we operate and we strive to continuously develop and market innovative products, so we can offer sustainable solutions that add value to our customers’ business as well as our own.
Beside the task of generating a reasonable return on investment, our approach is to gain and maintain the trust and satisfaction of our customers, suppliers, employees and neighbours. We are therefore dedicated to the highest standards in safety and quality to fulfil our responsibilities as a stakeholder in the food chain.
In this respect, I want to stress that we are not in the trading business, as we profoundly believe that solid partnerships with carefully selected suppliers are the best foundation for a long lasting and fruitful cooperation.
Continuous investments in R&D, backed by solid science and in-depth application knowledge, along with non-stop monitoring of the needs of and evolutions in the food and feed markets are at the heart of our strategy and operations. Thanks to our global network of highly skilled academic and industrial professionals, we work on daily basis to stay ahead in this fast developing industry.
Beside the specialty feed and flour milling additives, resulting from our in-house development, our group has built up long-term partnerships with various high quality suppliers for local distribution in several markets. Please note that these products are not presented in this leaflet. However, our local team will be delighted to present you what we can offer in your market.
We look forward to become your partner as well. Ir. Leo Van de MieropChairman

IMPROVE INTESTINAL HEALTHFOR BETTER GROWTH
DESCRIPTION
• Well-balanced combination of beta-glucans, nucleotides and butyric acid in a matrix of vegetable triglycerides
• The active components are embedded in a matrix of vegetable triglycerides. Therefore, the major part will only be released after degradation of the fat matrix by pancreatic lipases, thus preventing an immediate absorption of the active components, while ensuring their action throughout the entire gastro-intestinal tract.

DESCRIPTION
• Masterlac 35 offers a more economical way of providing highly digestible nutrients to young piglets.
USE
• Prestarter: 25 - 30 %• Weaner: 15 - 25 %• Starter: 5 - 15 %
BENEFITS
• The good free-flowing properties make Borcilac 20 an easy-to-handle product.
EFFECTS
• Thanks to the special homogenisation and spray drying process, the fat is present in very small particles and encapsulated by whey protein particles, resulting in a highly digestible product.
• In addition, the acidifiers help to decrease the stomach pH of the young piglet and are well-known for their strong antibacterial properties in the gut.
Dairy products
“Borcilac 20 is a feed ingredient specially developed for young animal diets. It is a source of spray dried vegetable fat, lactose and highly digestible proteins. It is acidified with formic, citric and lactic acid to optimise the digestive process.”
OPTIMISE THE DIGESTIVE PROCESS
SKIM MILK POWDER REPLACER
“Masterlac 35 is a ‘skim milk powder replacer’, consisting of dairy products, vegetable protein and lactic acid. The high protein content makes it ideal to replace skim milk powder in formulas for piglets. The acidification through lactic acid, helps to balance the intestinal flora and reduces digestion problems. The good free-flowing properties make Masterlac 35 an easy-to-handle product.”

DISARM THE ENDOTOXINS
Endotoxin solutions
DESCRIPTION
Once in the bloodstream, endotoxins induce an inflammatory immune response. EndoBan is developed to prevent and reduce the negative effects of endotoxins before they can reach the bloodstream, thereby lowering the potential for endotoxemia and the subsequent negative effects on animal performance.

It is recommended to use EndoBan under following circumstances, when there’s increased occurence of endotoxins:
POULTRY• At the onset of lay• For hens housed in cage-free
systems, which are affected more frequently by intestinal disorders
• After antibiotic treatment • In high fat diets • During heat stress• Fatty liver• In general when gut health is
compromised
SWINE• Around weaning• Transition from gestation to
lactation feed• After antibiotic treatment • In high fat diets • During heat stress• In general when gut health is
compromised
CATTLE• Calves• A diet high in rapidly
fermentable carbohydrates • Heat stress• After antibiotic treatment• Generally, when gut health
is compromised, which can be caused by different environmental, social and dietary factors

PUT THE BEST IN GET THE MOST OUT
EFFECTS
• Improves growth and FCR• Promotes higher breast meat yield• Ensures dry litter
BENEFITS
• One enzyme preparation for all species• Proven economical return• Effective in all rations containing arabinoxylans,
including wheat, corn, barley, sorghum, rye and cereal by-products
REMARK
Arabinoxylans are by far the most important anti nutritional part of the NSP fraction in feed. In some countries high amounts of particular raw materials are used ( eg. barley and oats in broiler feed). In this case additional enzyme activities can be useful. We can adapt our product according to your need.

Phytogenic products
“BroClear is a well-balanced combination of the next generation phytogenic oils and extracts. It is selected in such a way that the animal benefits from the synergistic activity of the different bioactive compounds.”

DESCRIPTION
BroClear is composed in a way to benefit from the cumulative anti-inflammatory action, bronchodilatory effect and mucolytic activity of natural compounds. In this way, BroClear creates both short- and long-term positive effects on the respiratory tract of animals which will eventually result in better performance.

Pigments
NATURAL WAY OF PIGMENTATIONSUPPLEMENTED PIGMENTS
The degree of pigmentation of egg yolk and broiler skin desired by the consumer can only be achieved by supplementing yellow and/or red colorants.
Synthetic pigments will do the job, e.g. apo-ester, but the potential carcinogenic effects are a matter of concern. There is also the natural way. A technological treatment (extraction, stabilisation, ...) turns these natural products into easy-to handle, stable and reliable products with a constant coloring activity.
DESCRIPTION
Colonut is a range of natural pigments used in poultry feeds for broiler skin and egg yolk pigmentation. The carotenoids are extracted from flowers or fruit, stabilized and mixed with a suitable carrier, resulting in a free flowing powder with standardized activity.
