Integrated production

Our proven security with egg products comes from our fully integrated production. Everything from feed components, hatcheries, rearing animals, keeping laying hens to producing egg products - in our group of companies everything is done in house.

You want to know where the chicken came from, what it ate and when it laid the egg, which is now part of your raw material; With fully integrated production, we can offer you that and much more.

Feeding mills

Quality management starts at feed-manufacturing stage

Our group's own feed mill on the banks of Germany’s Mittelland Canal produces top-grade, highly-nutritional formulas for the optimum health of our hens and the maximum quality of the eggs they lay. The experts in our test lab inspect the raw components of each load that reaches the mill. The feed mill takes on a key position within our group, as the in-house production and monitoring of feed is the only way to guarantee safe, residue-free quality.

In-house breeding and rearing of parent stock

We also raise our own parent stock

The parent animals of our laying hens are likewise raised by us. Cocks and hens mate, and the fertilized eggs are hatched to ensure strong and healthy new generations; all under the best hygiene conditions and subject to permanent veterinary inspection.

The hatchery

Carefully-monitored hatching

After 21 days of incubation, the chicks in the hatchery emerge from their shells. Strict hygiene conditions and careful veterinary care apply, to ensure that they have a healthy start in life.

In-house breeding and rearing of hens

Animal-friendly rearing is important to us

Our group’s rearing and laying farms are always close to each other, so that transport routes are kept as short as possible for animal-protection purposes. After being reared for 18 weeks, adult hens are transported to the laying farm in a careful, stress-free way to begin their egg-production career.

Fresh eggs

Laid today, on the customer’s table tomorrow

Each farm is equipped with a modern in-line egg-collection system with conveyor belts, packing machines and printers. Most plants also house a mechanical sorting system. The daily collection and packing of fresh eggs ensure our unique advantage, with printed logs to document their origin and corresponding rearing method.

Egg processing

High tech for sensitive products

Only eggs of the best quality are subject to further processing. After mechanical breaking and separation into white and yolk (or being left whole), the liquid is immediately cooled and then pasteurized.

Liquid egg products

The safe, practical alternative to shell eggs

Carefully pasteurized, available in many packaging formats and sizes, with or without additives; our liquid egg products offer customers a safer, more hygienic, more flexible and more convenient solution for virtually any requirement of the food industry, catering sector or artisanal production. Guaranteed salmonella-free. And thanks to our integrated production, you can trace each batch of egg products all the way back to the fed grain.

Powdered egg products

Problem-free and functional

An important part of our production is delivered in dry form. We offer various highly functional specialized products, in addition to the three standard powdered formats: whole egg, eggyolk and eggwhite.

Lysozymes

Safe fermentation

For the safe and reliable fermentation of wine, beer or cheese, lysozyme is the right choice. Lysozyme, a naturally occurring component of egg whites, is obtained using a careful and complex separation and concentration process. It allows cheese (or else) to mature safely and reliably, without the use of chemicals.

Logistics department

Top quality, delivered directly to your door

With its own fleet, our logistics department allows us to supply you directly and just in time with high quality egg products. If you wish, by the approx. 25.000 kg tanker load.
