Flo-Bond

Anti-Caking Agent & Toxin binder for feeds or ingredients

What is Flo-Bond?

FLO-BOND is a select, high affinity sorbent Hydrated Sodium Calcium Aluminosilicate (HSCAS). FLO-BOND is used and tested worldwide when problems of mycotoxins, molds, caking, and flowability appear in feeds or feed ingredients. Mycotoxins, the result of mold growth, can be very detrimental to the performance of poultry, livestock, fish, and pets. The special ability of FLO-BOND to bind mycotoxins is proven. It is a safe to use (GRAS listed) ingredient for bird, animal, fish, and pet feeds.

Why use Flo-Bond?

Mycotoxins are the result of mold growths in feeds or their ingredients. Mycotoxins usually occur in most grains like corn,
wheat, oats, soybeans, sorghum, cottonseed, rye, and rice. The source may contain more than one mycotoxin. Even at low levels, when two or more mycotoxins are present, there may be a synergetic effect, resulting in the same or greater negative performance results vs. one mycotoxin at higher levels in the feed. Processing of feeds, or their ingredients, increases surface areas where mycotoxins are formed from mold growths. Feeds often have an increase in mycotoxin levels after processing, and increased mold growth.

As FLO-BOND binds with the mycotoxin, a much larger particle is formed. One theory is the new particle is larger and unable to pass thru the gut wall and then secreted with the feces. FLO-BOND’S action helps prevent mycotoxins from having their negative effects on the performance of birds, animals, fish, and pets.
