25 January 2021 - Phibro Animal Health has opened its newly renovated mineral nutrition product and trace mineral premix plant in Omaha, Nebraska.
The company has increased the manufacturing footprint at the site to more than 100,000 square feet. The enhancements in the Omaha facility also include expanded controls and data collection, enabling quicker traceability.
Tim Costigan, Senior Vice President, Operations and Lifecycle Management – Nutritionals, Phibro Animal Health, commented: “When the facility first opened 20 years ago, customers fed 2-3 premixes across species, whereas now there are not only different formulas for each species but also for each life stage. Today, customers may use 10 or 20 unique premixes. This facility upgrade will allow us more flexibility in putting different materials through the system to process feed-specific premixes for all species and life stages— all while maintaining the same rigorous quality standards.”
