Aquafeed

Imagine the ability to create a diverse range of high-quality aquafeed products, each tailored to specific needs - whether enhancing colour with pigments or boosting health with additives - without the burden of managing countless recipes. With BESTMIX, that's no longer a challenge. You can effortlessly manage every variation with ease and precision, with the ability to add ingredients and additives in different ways (on top of a recipe, as part of a recipe, by adjusting other ingredients, etc...). The result: innovation without hassle.

Due to the cost and availability of high quality ingredients such as fishmeal and fish oils, formulating aquafeed can be challenging in terms of striking the right balance between the ingredient cost and nutritional quality. Investigating alternatives to these high quality - high cost ingredients (such as novel insect proteins, soy protein concentrate or other high protein vegetables) can be done with a click of a button in our solution. By being able to more frequently and accurately re-formulate the end products based on the actual market situation, you can save on inventory and raise your margin.

Controlling moisture levels of your final product has never been this easy. With our solution, you can calculate drying effects right from the formulation stage—at both the ingredient and recipe levels—eliminating uncertainty from the start. This effective moisture management ensures pellet stability, extends shelf life and minimizes nutrient leaching, overall enhancing feed efficiency.

In the aquafeed industry, formulators frequently face significant ingredient analysis variability, impacting product quality. To tackle this challenge, having up-to-date ingredient matrices in your formulation system is essential. The ability to pull real-time sample data directly - without manual input - is the "secret ingredient". These quick, accurate matrices ensure consistent product quality and regulatory compliance, empowering you to create optimized feed formulations tailored to the specific nutritional needs of aquatic species.

In a fast-paced environment, formulators face daily challenges with the unpredictability of raw materials, including the variability of prices over short and long terms. In our software solution, you can review all data including price trends and forecasted amounts, enabling you to make informed decisions about future purchases. Avoid production breaks due to material shortages and gain insights to anticipate ingredient needs (what to buy when), ensuring cost-effectiveness while maintaining quality.

When a new product is created or refined, BESTMIX takes care of the details by updating all essential legal and commercial documents in one go. Each newly created product version comes to life with an updated label, all crafted through customizable templates. As soon as a product is finalized, these labels are instantly available, ready to be shared both within the company and with partners. This streamlined process can transform hours or even days of work into mere minutes or seconds, keeping everyone aligned and ensuring accurate, compliant, up-to-date information at every step.
