ProPhorce™ SR – global market leader in tributyrins for animal nutrition – celebrates its 10-year anniversary
This quarter, Global feed additives producer Perstorp, will celebrate 10 years of commercial application of pioneering tributyrins solution ProPhorce™ SR in animal nutrition.

To mark the occasion, Perstorp is organizing a series of activities to celebrate and commemorate the product’s accomplishments throughout the decade.
