PERSTORP, SWEDEN: Perstorp has opened a feed additive production plant in Vapi, India, as part of its plan to increase its presence in the Asian feed additives market. The company has appointed Marc Kinjet as Business Development Manager Asia to oversee continued growth.

Seeing fast growing demand for feed additives, Perstorp has been looking for the right opportunity to strengthen its position in Asia. This will help Perstorp to increase its focus on the Asian market. The Vapi facility has now been optimized to produce high quality feed additives. The main focus of the plant is the production of preservatives, which includes mould inhibitors (ProSid MI), anti-oxidants (ProTain OT) and acidifiers (ProPhorce AC).

“Producing feed additives in India for the fast growing Asian market makes it possible for us to shorten lead times and to improve our service level. One way to show commitment to quality was to acquire certification according to the European Feed Additives and Premixture Quality System, FAMI-QS. Perstorp Vapi has been the proud owner of a FAMI-QS certificate since November of last year,” said Marc Kinjet, Business Development Manager Asia, Perstorp.
