Vitamin B5 (calcium D-pantothenate) for livestock, aquaculture and companion animals

       

BASF is a leading global producer of vitamin B5 for animal nutrition. Our commitment is to support our customers by concentrating on quality, performance, reliability and sustainability. 

Vitamin B5 is an essential micronutrient for all animals. It is required for energy production and metabolism. Given the variations in vitamin B5 content and its accessibility from plant-based feeds, animal nutritionists and farmers must consider incorporating additives or vitamin blends enriched with pantothenic acid into feed to meet requirements for optimal livestock growth, development, and overall performance. 

BASF provides a high-quality vitamin B5 granulate (calcium D-pantothenate) for use in vitamin blends, premixes and feeds. The flowability and mixing behavior of the product is excellent and ensures homogeneous mixing.
