Feed with trust:
Egenberger milk replacers.

A milk replacer is one of the first products that young animals such as calves, piglets, and lambs come into contact with. The first weeks and months are probably the most critical phase of their lives. Quality and trust play a particularly important role in the choice of a milk replacer. That’s because nutrition has a greater influence on the animal’s further development during this first period than at any other time. A diet optimised for the growth phase can create the basis for robust health over the rest of the animal’s life

Grown out of our passion for milk: Egenberger milk replacers.
Milk is our passion: we have been processing milk since 1899. First as a dairy with milk drying and later as a manufacturer of high-quality milk replacers – now with more than 50 years of experience. Our range now includes a wide selection of customised milk replacers for every stage of life. Are you looking for a unique formulation? In our factories in Thierhaupten we offer you solutions precisely tailored to your needs.

Hardly any other region is as closely associated with green meadows, high-quality milk, and thriving livestock farming as Bavaria. So it was only natural that Egenberger was born right here. To this day, milk processing characterises not only our history but also the identity of our company. There is probably no better place for us to combine innovation and tradition than where we have been based for over 125 years: in Thierhaupten in the heart of Bavaria.

Remarkably close to the original: 
the advantages of milk replacers composed by Egenberger in Bavaria.

In principle, the mother’s milk is the first choice. However, a high-quality milk replacer offers you – and your young animals – many advantages:

 

Economic

Milk replacers offer various advantages to farmers. If you compare the payoff-price for milk with the costs of milk replacers, you quickly realise that a milk replacer is the less expensive choice in the long run.

Efficient

All Egenberger milk replacers are also suitable for automatic feeders. This allows processes to be designed and optimised more efficiently. This saves valuable working time and money.

Health

The use of milk replacers ensures a reliable supply of all essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients for the young animals. Unlike the farm’s own milk, Egenberger milk replacers are regularly checked. The plus pays off: through healthy growth and a robust nature. Our many years of experience have been leading to the EGEsafe concept that characterises all Egenberger milk replacers.

Hygiene

If fed and stored properly, Egenberger milk replacer is at least as hygienic as farm milk.

Flexible

Unlike with the farm’s own milk, you can give special support to weaker young animals by using a special composition. You can specifically meet increased requirements for nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and trace elements. 

Custom

Egenberger offers you the opportunity to have your own customised Bavarian milk replacer produced by us. Do you need a special recipe? Get in touch with us.

Quality

For over 125 years, the name “Egenberger” has been standing for first-class quality. In order to keep it that way, we have our own well-equipped laboratory. Here, we always check the quality of the raw materials as well as that of the finished milk replacers. In order to confirm our results, we have our products tested additionally by accredited external laboratories.
