Co-Products
Our sugar beet animal feed co-products are regional, sustainable, and produced from non-genetically modified beet varieties. We process the entire sugar beet into different products, with nothing wasted – even most of the water for the production process comes from the beet.
Here’s how the process works: We start by cleaning and cutting up the beets, separating the tops and tails of the beets which are used as feed material or in biogas production.
Next, we extract the sugar from the beet pulp and crystallize it in several steps. The syrup that remains after extraction – the molasses – still contains sugar and other valuable components.
Following the extraction, the beet pulp is pressed mechanically and sold as a fresh-pressed pulp. Through further processing, the pressed pulp can be dried, molassed and pelletized to produce several sugar beet pulp products:
Some of our co-products are also available in certified organic quality:
- Sugar Beet Pulp Pellets (10 mm)
- Beet Molasses
These products come from sugar beets grown according to all relevant legal requirements and also comply with additional standards from organizations like Naturland and Bioland (or BioSuisse for beet molasses).
| Product Type | Certification |
| Beet Molasses | Bioland Naturland BioSuisse EU organic regulation |
| Sugar Beet Pulp Pellets | Bioland Naturland EU organic regulation |
In addition to our sugar beet animal feed co-products, we also produce wheat starch. During wheat grain processing, we separate the wheat bran and then pelletize it. Our wheat bran pellets are a popular product in the feed industry.
