Functional solutions for modern, sustainable aquaculture – Made in Germany
Modern, sustainable aquaculture is the fastest growing area of animal production worldwide. It makes a significant contribution to food security – but also places special demands on feeding:
✔ Efficient
✔ Fish-friendly
✔ Water-friendly
✔ Sustainable
Our expertise for your success
With over 60 years of experience in the development and production of functional speciality products, BEWITAL agri brings extensive technological expertise to the modern fish feed industry.
Our specialised technologies offer decisive advantages:
- Water-stable products with high bioavailability
- Targeted combination of functional ingredients with synergistic effects
- Effective protection against external influences by embedding in a fat matrix (BEWI-FATRIX® process)
- High acceptance and feed intake – even with high levels of active ingredients
Embedded and specifically targeted: in fish
We rely on a special production process: In the BEWITAL® suspension process, all functional ingredients – including phytogenic additives – are embedded in a matrix of vegetable fats by means of spray cooling (cryotechnology).
This targeted embedding provides reliable protection against external influences – for example in the temperature-sensitive extrusion process – and ensures that they have a targeted effect in the animal and are not lost in the water (“leaking out”).
This results in functional additives that promote animal health and feed utilisation as well as meeting the requirements of sustainable, water- and resource-saving aquaculture.
We will find your solution.

Synergies with MartinBauer – for phytogenic efficiency
For phytogenic components, we rely on our partnership with MartinBauer, one of the world’s leading specialists for botanical ingredients.
This cooperation enables:
- Consistent quality through controlled cultivation & processing
- Targeted functionality through selected phytogenes
- Safe integration into our speciality products – without “leaking out” into the water
- Synergistic effects through the combination of herbal active ingredients with energy sources
What are phytogenic additives?
Phytogenic additives are a broad group of plant-based ingredients, including essential oils (e.g. oregano, thyme or eucalyptus oil), oleoresins, herbs and spices (e.g. turmeric, ginger, cinnamon), as well as isolated active ingredients such as flavonoids, alkaloids, tannins or saponins.
These phytogenic substances have antioxidant, immunomodulating or digestive effects – based on several complementary mechanisms.
