We’ve been working on improving your pet’s diet :-) #becausewecare
The development of our improved pet food products with an optimum balance of Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids has seen a significant nutritional improvement for our customer’s pets.
Antioxidants are key to the high quality of our products. However, high susceptibility towards oxidation and how to minimise it remains a top priority for us.
Types of Antioxidants
Types of AntioxidantsIn the past, antioxidants have been used in pet food to protect against fat oxidation, maintain taste and protect nutrients throughout the shelf life.
In modern times, antioxidants are used at various stages in the supply chain. This is in order to protect the quality of materials for animal nutrition, raw materials during rendering processes, bulk oils, pre-mixtures and fats. As fats remain an essential part of the diet, antioxidants will continue to play an important role in protecting fats against oxidation.

Our antioxidants are natural, clean and safe
Our antioxidants are natural, clean and safeNatural mixed tocopherols (Vitamin E) are very important, because animal fats and oils contain very minimal amounts of vitamin E. A certain shelf life extension can be achieved with natural mixed tocopherols, however there is a limit for this.
Rosemary extract also known as carnosic acid is beginning to have an increasing importance and adds further shelf- life beyond what natural mixed tocopherols can provide. This is a natural option and does not impact on palatability.
Here at Paws Pet Food, we use both natural mixed tocopherols and rosemary extract to naturally preserve your foods. This is to ensure there is good shelf life and helps to maintain the quality, freshness and palatability in your pet’s food.
