Launch TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® Products, Promoting the Innovative Development of Humanized Nutritional Management for Pets in China.

In China, pet parenting is gradually becoming more and more science-driven and humanized. The "2023- 2024 Chinese Pet Nutrition Consumption Report" shows that Chinese pet owners are increasingly inclined to purchase diversified and nutritionally functional products for their pets. In response to this demand, ADM launched new TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® products, including TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® VET RENAL CATS, TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® VET INTESTINAL DOGS and TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® Longevity DOGS at PFA 2024. Supported by science-based formulas, these products provide precise nutritional solutions for pets and showcase innovative development of pet nutrition products in China.

The "2023-2024 China Pet Medical White Paper (Consumption Report)" indicates that the top reasons for dogs and cats to visit the vet are gastroenteritis and lower urinary tract conditions. Moreover, according to the "2023 China Pet Industry New Trend Insight Report", it is expected that 30% of pet cats and dogs will reach old age by 2025. With the increasing number of elderly pets, the market demand for products and services that support senior cats and dogs is also on the rise. Bolstered by domestic market demand and industry-leading innovation, ADM's global brand TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® has launched three new products. TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® VET RENAL CATS features selected high-quality protein sources, low- phosphorus formula and additional raw materials rich in OMEGA-3 components, providing comprehensive support for kidney function. TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® VET INTESTINAL DOGS chooses high- quality proteins with high absorption and digestibility and applies a scientific combination of fibers, probiotics, and prebiotics, providing nutrition that supports recovery for dogs with gastrointestinal symptoms. For senior dogs, TOTAL EQUILÍBRIO ® Longevity DOGS features fresh meat and a “no corn, no wheat” formula that provides support for joint health, intestinal health, heart and kidney function, aiding in antioxidant stress, and a longer and healthier life.
