Pump up the animal food value
Designed for the fish processing industry, Landia pumps with extra cutting blades are helping Greenock-based pet food producer Rossyew convert Scottish Salmon by-products into speciality oil and protein ingredients for pig, poultry, pet and aqua feeds.

Landia's stainless steel long-shaft MPFR-I pump units have proved energy efficient and very reliable in a tough application, according to reports from he firm.

Rossyew's site manager Michael Cox explains: "When we set up our modern factory (which is approved by the Ministry of Agriculture, environmental agencies and feed manufacturing assurance schemes to conform to all EU fish by-product processing regulations), we knew we had to invest in no-nonsense pumps that wouldn't burden our productivity with downtime. Landia's equipment works extremely well indeed".

Rossyew produces Salmon Pro a palatable hydrolysed salmon protein hydrolysate and Rossyew Scottish Salmon Oil, which contains anti-inflammatory properties in order to improve animal welfare, fertility and performance.

This latest installation for Landia follows the company's recent work at fish farms in Chile, where its pumps and mixers are playing a key role in the processing of farmed salmon mortalities and by-products.
