Our High-Quality Proteins Solutions
Proteins are fundamental components of animal nutrition, essential for growth, health, and productivity. With a wide array of available sources, from traditional proteins to emerging alternatives, there is significant potential for diversification and innovation. Protein choices are critical to ensuring optimal animal performance and long-term food system resilience.
Our Expertise
At Roquette, our expertise in plant-based ingredients enables us to offer a broad portfolio of high-quality plant proteins tailored to the needs of animal nutrition. From well-established sources like pea and wheat to new protein solutions, our products support efficient, sustainable, and nutritionally balanced feed formulations.
“Animal feed proteins are essential feed ingredients for improving growth performance, supporting the immune system, and ensuring efficient production in animals. The global animal feed proteins market is led by the demand for animal protein, sustainability concerns, and a shift toward alternative sources”
- Undestanding Feed Proteins in Animal Nutrition - Feed Additive, 2025
Proteins are important ingredients of nutrition in animals, just as they are in humans, and contribute to animals’ health, productivity, and sustainable food production. In order to address the growing demand of plant-based proteins, we offer high-quality proteins derived from maize, wheat, potatoes, and peas, which are highly valued in feed formulations for their superior nutritional profiles. Thanks to a wet milling process, our range of proteins offers:
- High protein content and a rich source of essential amino acids
- Low ash content and minimal non-starch polysaccharides
- Excellent digestibility and tolerance
- Absence of anti-nutritional factors
- Neutral taste for enhanced palatability
- Improved structure in products such as chunks and kibbles
- Texturizing properties, including emulsifying and viscosifying functions
Some of our proteins combine both nutritional and functional properties, such as texturizing and solubility, offering new possibilities for optimization and innovation in animal nutrition.
Our Corn Proteins: reliable, affordable, and more
GLUTALYS® Corn Protein (Corn Gluten Meal, CGM) is a highly digestible, insoluble protein range derived from non-GMO corn. With a protein content of approximately 60%, it is a trusted choice across feed applications.
For the European market, GLUTALYS® HQ (High Quality) has been developed specifically for pet food, offering the highest standards in mycotoxin management. This allows for secure, confident inclusion of high levels of corn protein in your formulas
Our Wheat Proteins: a range of high-quality proteins
Wheat protein is highly appreciated for its outstanding digestibility. This type of protein is low in ash and in fiber, and is free of anti-nutritional factors.
VITEN® Vital Wheat Gluten: A premium native wheat protein, ideal for pet food and aquafeed. With a protein content of approximately 80%, it offers mycotoxin safety and is particularly suited for extrusion processes.
Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein® CWS is tailored for calf milk replacers and is suitable for the most sensitive animals. This highly digestible, soluble, and contaminant-free protein can replace dairy proteins in feed. Its low viscoelasticity also makes it ideal for high protein inclusion rates in feeds.
Our Pea Proteins: nutritional and safe solution
LYSAMINE® GPS is a highly concentrated protein sourced from yellow peas. On top of being a very good protein source from a nutritional standpoint (as it contains essential amino acids especially arginine and lysine, low in ash and anti-nutritional factors), pea protein also stands out for being non-GMO, grain-free, hypoallergenic, and sustainable. With a protein content of approximately 78%, this pea protein is an excellent choice for premium pet food, as well as feeds for piglets, calves, and juvenile fish.
Our Potato Proteins: the ideal amino acid profile
TUBERMINE® is a range of potato protein isolates with a protein content of 78%. It is well-known for its low ash content, non-GMO and grain-free profile, hypoallergenic properties. Its well-balanced amino acid profile perfectly suits to the needs of pets and piglets. Approved for use in organic diets, potato protein is a versatile solution to modern animal nutrition.
