Outstanding benefits of shrimp shell powder
Stimulates animals to eat better
The natural scent of dried shrimp is very attractive, helping to increase the “palatability” of feed for poultry, livestock, and aquatic products
High mineral supplement – good for bones and shells
Abundant Calcium – Phosphorus content helps support bone development in pigs, chickens, ducks, and healthy crustacean shells (shrimp, crab).
Chitin/chitosan supports immunity
These polysaccharides from shrimp shells help increase resistance, promote healthy intestines — benefits that have been widely studied
A solution to replace fishmeal, reduce costs
Protein content of ~27–35% meets the needs of moderate mixing formulas, helping to save costs compared to high protein fishmeal
Environmentally friendly
Recycle shrimp shells – which are by-products – into valuable raw materials, reduce waste and do not pollute the environment

Clean and remove impurities.
Dry thoroughly to maintain the structure of amino acids and chitin.
Grind finely, create uniform powder.
Quality control: check moisture, protein, ash, salt, microorganisms... to ensure safety.
Economic benefits
Low raw material cost: utilizing shrimp shell by-products
Reduce import demand when replacing fishmeal
Livestock efficiency: increase FCR, reduce digestive risks, improve survival rate
Commitment from Thao Loan Seafood
Products are tested according to standards (can be according to ISO/HACCP requirements).
Consulting on suitable mixing formulas for all livestock.
