JPet® has a gummy consistency and is formulated without sugar. JPet® ensures a great bioavailability of ingredients and has an appealing taste to dogs. What is more, it represents an innovative approach for the veterinary sector, as it allows to have in a single formulation, the easy administration typical of tablets, the palatability of semi-solid forms (e.g. pastes) and a smart and friendly design for the pet owner, who is more disposed to this practical and simple type of administration.

VETERINARY INSTANT SOUPS (VIS®)

We are able to produce practical and easy-to-use patented soups based on cereals, meat, vegetables and functional ingredients, ready in a few seconds by adding warm or hot water. The product represents the ideal solution for dogs and cats who can appreciate the typical palatability of a soup or a home-prepared meal, and it is very practical also for the owner who can prepare in a few seconds a tasty meal. The production method with VIS® technology, which involves coating the cereal with a special lipid mixture, maintains the crunchiness for a long time, favoring therefore a greater liking to the animal.
