Meet our colleagues

Els, R&D director Feed and Specialties: "True innovation translates into measurable and sustainable impact in the market."
Being surrounded by colleagues who challenge me to think differently - energizes me.
-
Mostafa, Projectmanager Biotechnology: "I get energy from working on innovative technologies."
Innovative technology will contribute significantly to sustainability and circularity within the animal food sector.

Sep, Biotechnologist: ‘We use biotechnology to make the inedible portions of certain raw materials edible.’
'I am a biotechnologist. This means I conduct research, for example into the development of new products that contribute to a responsible food chain. This can be virtually anything such as animal feeds, fertiliser enhancers and the like. To do this, we use micro organisms in smart ways.'
