Products in Sensory Ingredients: Increased Digestibility

Nordic Sugar A/B Sugar Beet Pulp With Molasses are most of the beet pulp which is mixed with sugar beet molasses before drying. Molasses contains the sugar that is bound within the syrup and can therefore not be directly extracted in crystalline form. This sugar is very easily digestible. It represents an important additional energy source for monogastric animals. Ruminants benefit from the molasses, particularly because the sugar becomes rapidly available in the rumen. This sugar is lacking in many other animal feeds, especially those made from silage.

International Ingredient Dextrose is a white crystalline sugar produced by enzymatic conversion of corn starch, is the monohydrate form of glucose. It is mildly sweet (about 70% the sweetness of sucrose), highly fermentable, and a natural flavor enhancer. Dextrose is a carbohydrate energy source, feed intake enhancer, and natural sweetener that is commonly used in dairy and veal calf diets.

Nordic Sugar A/B Molasses is an energy-rich, highly viscous syrup that can be used in animal feed to enrich it with energy and minerals. When we produce our sugar it is not possible to extract all of the sugar that is contained in the sugar beet, as part of the sugar cannot crystallize in the thick juice. The sugar crystals are separated by centrifuging and leave behind a highly viscous syrup called molasses.
