Kemin Animal Nutrition & Health announced March 8 the addition of Organic KEM GLO to its comprehensive line of carotenoids, commonly known as pigments. Organic KEM GLO — a U.S. Department of Agriculture-certified organic additive — helps organic egg producers intensify the color of egg yolks.

For more than 40 years, Kemin has provided safe, high-quality carotenoid products to the egg layer industry. The company said Organic KEM GLO harnesses the natural characteristics of paprika to uniformly distribute color throughout feed, delivering consistent egg color pigmentation and density. The product is also highly stable and standardized to guarantee the consistent addition of xanthophyll to animal feed, according to the announcement.

“We are incredibly proud of our growing carotenoid portfolio here at Kemin,” said Roger Myers, senior key account manager, Kemin Industries. “With the addition of Organic KEM GLO, we are able to reach producers with more high-quality carotenoid options that meet both their operational needs and consumer demands.”

Established in 1961, Kemin is a privately held, family-owned-and-operated company with more than 2,800 global employees and operations in 90 countries, including manufacturing facilities in Belgium, Brazil, China, India, Italy, Russia, San Marino, Singapore, South Africa and the U.S.
