Perstorp’s history as a company and their devotion to gut health preservation.
Perstorp is a Swedish company which began as a
specialty chemicals manufacturer approximately 140 years ago, which is quite remarkable. Perstorp has over

innovators at the time, and continue to be considered as such within this industry by being the pioneers in the production of
protected organic acids.
Perstorp believes on finding wealth through better animal gut health, and not just wealth from profits.
Referring to the kind of
feeling you get when
