Natural ingredients and innovative carob-based solutions for the food industry and livestock farming.
Animal feed
A natural feed material (ground carob seed flour). Rich in mannose polysaccharides (galactomannans). A natural prebiotic and bacteriostatic agent. SANIGUT PLUS has a higher mannan content.
| SANIGUT | SANIGUT PLUS | |
|---|---|---|
| Mannans | 24-27 | 34-38 |
| Crude protein | 14-16 | 7-9 |
Food industry
A natural plant hydrocolloid (polysaccharide) obtained exclusively from the endosperm of carob seeds processed by Armengol Hermanos S.A. A premium stabiliser, thickener and emulsifier.
Carob seed from a single growing area, GMO-free.
Mannan polysaccharides stop Salmonella and E. coli attaching to the gut wall.
Feed protein is digested more fully and less ammonia is released.
Made in Spain under GMP+ certification, no veterinary prescription needed.
Data from the SANIGUT catalogue and technical data sheets.
Agglutination exceeded 50% of the pure-mannose level across three Salmonella strains and two E. coli strains.

72 piglets, 5 kg/t of feed: less E. coli K88 in the gut. Inflammation marker Pig-MAP on day 4 was 0.74 mg/dL against 1.20 in the control (0.70 with zinc oxide).

SANIGUT and E410 are both made from carob seed, which accounts for about 10% of the pod by weight.
Pod
Seed
Micronised seed becomes SANIGUT and SANIGUT PLUS; the endosperm yields locust bean gum E410.
