The Science of Better Delivery

Our proprietary nano-encapsulation technology unlocks the true potential of proven phytogenic compounds.

Why Most Phytogenics Underperform

Plant-based active compounds have demonstrated powerful benefits for animal health and performance. The challenge has never been the ingredients — it's getting them where they need to go.

Conventional phytogenic products face fundamental delivery problems. Oil-based compounds don't mix with water, making them impractical for drinking water systems. During feed processing, heat and pressure degrade active ingredients before they ever reach the animal. And even when compounds survive processing, large particle sizes limit absorption in the gut.

The result: inconsistent performance and unrealized potential.

Poor Water Solubility

Oil-based compounds separate and float, never reaching the animal

Heat Degradation

Active ingredients break down during feed processing

Large Particle Size

Poor absorption limits bioavailability in the gut

A Fundamentally Different Approach

Golden Core — Lipophilic active compounds
Blue Shell — Hydrophilic protective layer
50-200 nm — Particle diameter

Our proprietary nano-encapsulation technology transforms oil-based phytogenic compounds into ultra-fine particles — small enough that billions fit on the tip of a ballpoint pen.

Each nano-particle features a protective architecture: a lipophilic core that holds the active compounds, surrounded by a hydrophilic outer layer that enables perfect dispersion in water. This structure protects ingredients from degradation while ensuring they reach the animal intact and bioavailable.

What Nano-Encapsulation Delivers

Nano-particles being absorbed through intestinal villi

Superior Bioavailability

Nano-scale particles dramatically increase surface area, enabling more efficient absorption in the gut. Active compounds reach their targets instead of passing through unused.

Perfect dispersion of nano-particles in water

Complete Water Solubility

Our nano-emulsions disperse perfectly in water — no separation, no sediment, no clogged lines. This enables flexible application through both water and feed systems.

Nano-particles maintaining stability under heat stress

Processing Stability

The protective nano-capsule shields active compounds from heat, oxygen, and environmental degradation. Ingredients survive pelleting and maintain potency through storage.

Controlled release of active compounds over time

Controlled Release

Our technology enables targeted delivery in the intestinal tract, where active compounds can have the greatest impact on gut health and performance.

From Research to Production — All Under One Roof

AHC is not a distributor. We developed our nano-encapsulation technology through over a decade of dedicated research, and we manufacture all products at our own facility in the Netherlands.

This integrated approach gives us complete control over quality and consistency. It also means we can continuously refine our formulations based on real-world feedback from farms around the globe.

Our development philosophy is rooted in practical problem-solving. Every product we create originates from challenges observed on farms — not from theoretical formulations designed in isolation.
