Unlocking the Secrets of Moisture in Dry Pet Food – to be presented at Foro Mascotas
Moisture content in dry pet food is often overlooked, yet it holds the key to numerous aspects that significantly impact the final product. When manufacturers think about moisture, they usually associate it with product quality. However, this essential element is much broader, influencing palatability and cost efficiency. The correlation between moisture and kibble palatability is known, but rarely quantified, leaving questions and concerns largely unaddressed.
Dry pet food production often focuses on formulation as the main lever for optimizing production costs, sidelining the potential benefits that moisture management can offer. This is where our presentation at Foro Mascotas steps in. Timothee Gally, Ph.D., Dry Technical Applications Manager at AFB, will present “Correlation between moisture of the kibble and palatability,” providing a holistic view of moisture’s influence on quality, palatability, and economics. Join us to gain invaluable insights and drive smarter dry pet food manufacturing decisions.
Scheduled for June 27th at 11:30 a.m. at Foro Mascotas in Guadalajara, Mexico.
