Lohmann Animal Nutrition | Germany

Lohmann Animal Nutrition (LAN) is a new company that was founded as a direct successor to the feed additive business of Lohmann Animal Health.

Fifty years of experience

Owing to this background, Lohmann Animal Nutrition (LAN) has deep roots and a long tradition in animal nutrition and feed formulation. Although it was only founded in 2014 by Managing Director Dr Bruno Kaesler, the history of LAN goes back almost fifty years to 1967 when Heinz Lohmann founded Lohmann Tierernährung – which is German for Lohmann Animal Nutrition. As the name suggests, the Cuxhaven-based company with approximately 120 employees specialises in the production and formulation of feed additives, premixtures, and complementary feeding stuffs for all animal species.

Product range

In its broad range of feed additives LAN lays particular emphasis on safe, high-quality ingredients as demonstrated by its quality and trust programme which was successfully launched in 2014. The programme is supported by LAN’s subsidiary in China, where it has long since cooperated with future-oriented suppliers on an equal footing to develop effective measures on site. The result is products with increased safety and higher supply security at a fair price. 

More specifically, LAN’s product range comprises dedicated solutions for the pet food industry, providing solutions for challenges faced by pet food manufacturers. LAN is an experienced partner in ensuring product stability, consistent quality, and good storability of premium pet food products made by prize-winning clients. Its portfolio furthermore includes flavours and enhancers to increase the palatability of pet food, snacks, and treats. LAN’s recently launched new website, features two company films explaining some of the problems encountered in the animal nutrition industry today and how LAN tackles these issues.

Strong client support 

The team of highly-skilled technical product managers and nutrition experts at LAN work in close cooperation with product developers. Together, they constantly strive to overcome challenges in the animal nutrition industry. The company has prioritised the improvement of existing products and the development of new ideas. But most important of all is the on-site support offered by LAN’s technical product managers and pet food specialists, who listen to what is really needed and where the problems lie.
