An MCT powder formulated for pet nutrition, where free oil is the enemy: unencapsulated MCT oil migrates out of kibble coatings, clumps in premixes and coats the bowl instead of the animal. Microencapsulation keeps the oil locked in the particle, so it survives mixing, extrusion and storage.

FAQ
Why microencapsulated MCT for pet food?
Encapsulation protects the oil during kibble coating, extrusion and storage — the oil does not migrate, clump or sit on the surface the way sprayed-on liquid oil can.
Which pet formats does it suit?
Dry kibble coatings and complete pet foods, soft chews, dental sticks and treats, powdered supplement premixes, and veterinary or recovery diets that need a rapidly absorbed energy source.
Is it suitable for both dogs and cats?
The powder is used in supplement premixes for dogs and cats. Serving levels are set by each pet-food formulation; we supply the raw material and its specification.
How is the oil protected inside the powder?
The MCT oil is emulsified, encapsulated in food-grade wall materials and spray-dried into free-flowing particles; the specification tables above list the requirements for character, purity and stability.
What documentation comes with an order?
A batch COA and a technical specification sheet are supplied with every shipment; see the Documents Supplied section above.
