Brewer’s Yeast (Dried)

Description

Product Overview
Brewer’s Yeast (Dried) is a high-protein, inactivated yeast derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, produced as a co-product of the brewing industry and carefully dried to preserve nutritional integrity. It is primarily used as a functional feed ingredient, fermentation nutrient, and health supplement base across animal nutrition, aquaculture, and industrial fermentation sectors. The key value proposition lies in its rich profile of B-vitamins, amino acids, and beta-glucans, which enhance gut health and growth performance. Strategically, it offers a traceable, upcycled solution amid rising demand for sustainable, non-antibiotic growth promoters in global protein supply chains.

Competitive Advantage Spotlight
Superior nutrient density and low ash content ensure consistent biological value, backed by ISO‑22000 certified production and year‑round supply stability from integrated breweries.

Key Specifications & Technical Characteristics

• Chemical composition: Crude protein ≥45%, crude fiber ≤4%, moisture ≤8%, beta-glucans ≥12%, B‑vitamin complex (B1, B2, B6, B12)

• Purity grade: Feed grade (premium) / Food grade (available upon request)

• Physical characteristics: Fine powder or small flakes; light to golden brown; particle size 95% <250 µm; bulk density 450–550 g/L

• Packaging options: 25 kg multi‑wall kraft paper bags, 500 kg polypropylene big bags, bulk pneumatic tankers

• Shelf life: 24 months in original sealed packaging stored below 25°C, RH <65%

Core Industrial Applications

• Animal nutrition (monogastric & ruminant feed): Replaces synthetic vitamins and antibiotic growth promoters; improves feed conversion ratio (FCR) by 6–8% in broilers and piglets.

• Aquaculture: Enhances immune response and stress resistance in shrimp and salmon; reduces mortality during early life stages.

• Industrial fermentation (yeast extract production): Provides cost‑effective nitrogen and B‑vitamin source for bacterial or fungal culture media.

• Pet food & functional treats: Clean‑label protein and palatability enhancer.
  Outperforms raw grain yeast due to standardized inactivation and lower endotoxin load, enabling reliable formulation without anti‑nutrient risks.

Competitive Advantages

• Quality consistency: Every batch tested for protein, ash, yeast activity, and Salmonella/Enterobacteriaceae – COA included.

• Supply reliability: Dual‑sourced from three high‑volume breweries with buffer stock >500 MT allows 24/7 dispatch.

• Logistics capability: Global freight contracts with 20+ forwarders enable door‑to‑door delivery to 40+ countries.

• Price competitiveness: Direct ex‑brewery model removes intermediaries; quarterly volume‑based rebates for contracts >500 MT/year.

• Sustainability: Upcycled byproduct certified under Zero Waste Brewing Initiative – supports buyer ESG targets.

• Technical support: On‑call animal nutritionist and fermentation scientist with full traceability from wort to final drying.

Commercial & Supply Information

• Minimum Order Quantity (MOQ): 20 MT (bulk)

• Loading capacity: 20 MT per 20‑foot dry container (palletized: 20 pallets × 25 bags of 25 kg = 12.5 MT – correction: actual bulk density loading – 20 MT per 20‑foot container using big bags or pneumatic packing)

• Standard loading (cargo‑optimized): 25 MT (bulk) per 40‑foot high‑cube container.
