DEKAFLAKE
What is DEKAFLAKE?
Located within a 5,700 m² facility, the DEKAFLAKE production line focuses on processed grain-based feed ingredients using a controlled process approach. Monthly production capacity is 2,500 tonnes.
DEKAFLAKE
Controlled steam and rolling process
DEKAFLAKE is a group of processed grain-based feed ingredients in flake form, obtained by controlled steaming, rolling and drying of corn and barley, and produced for use in dairy and beef cattle rations.
- 01
Conditioning
Grain is conditioned under controlled moisture.
- 02
Steaming
Grain is tempered with saturated steam.
- 03
Rolling
Grain is flaked using precision rollers.
Controlled heat, moisture and mechanical processing
- Heat and moisture penetrate the grain.
- Starch granules undergo gelatinisation.
- The protein-starch matrix loosens.
- The grain surface area increases.
This makes starch more accessible to digestive enzymes and rumen microorganisms.
