About us

Our story

Our company was founded with an unwavering passion and commitment to fostering a more sustainable and progressive food production landscape.

Through creativity and science, we are paving a new path that reimagines how we approach animal health and nutrition. Our holistic approach is designed to align the industry’s evolving standards with consumer well-being and satisfaction.

The vision behind our commitment to quality​

ADDIX is part of the Carval’s ecosystem of companies, founded by Carlos A. Vallecilla Borrero, in the 1950’s. His essence and values – passion, integrity, trust, and respect -are embedded across all his companies. He championed innovation, sustainability, and ethical practices to benefit people, animals, and the planet, and ADDIX is proud to carry on this mission.

His enterprising courageous character, embodies the resolve to turn dreams into reality. It’s not just about having a great idea – it’s about the inner strength and determination that propel you to take the leap and bring that idea to life.

Carval has over 68 years of experience designing, producing and commercializing solutions in the Latin-American animal production markets -poultry, swine, cattle, pet industry and agriculture sector; with operations in over 15 countries.

Beyond the farm|Processing​

Redefining feed efficiency and animal performance.

Optimizing Metabolizable Energy (ME) and Net Energy (NE) is critical for sustainable animal production, as it directly affects growth, reproduction, and feed efficiency. In poultry, swine, cattle, aquaculture and pets. Lifos™ 6.0 and Lifos™ 10.0, supported by the cutting-edge Nutrilip℠ program, provides an innovative solution for optimizing ME from feed fat sources while improving animal performance and profitability.

Key benefits

Enhanced fat utilization​

Combines lysophospholipids to boost digestion, emulsification, and absorption of dietary fats.​

Acts as a precursor for choline synthesis, reducing or replacing choline chloride in feeds.

Supports liver health and minimizes energy loss, ensuring optimal fat mobilization.

The Nutrilip℠ program

Designed by ADDIX to optimize the energy contribution from fats in feed

This program is based on controlled and field studies across swine, broilers, commercial layers, and turkeys to generate data on ME and NE optimization from fats and oils.

What it does…​

Measures critical quality parameters like Free Fatty Acids (FFA).

Evaluates fatty acid profiles and fat quality.

Provides energy contribution analysis using advanced tools.

By incorporating Lifos™ 6.0 or Lifos™ 10.0 into feed strategies, producers can achieve superior efficiency, reduced costs, and support for sustainable livestock production.​

Improx™ is an innovative feed additive meticulously designed to enhance performance and health in animal production.

What makes Improx™ unique?

Improx™ is a proprietary formulation of an Ionized Alkaline Anionic Mineral Complex, that ensures high bioavailability and immune enhancement. It operates effectively in an alkaline environment (pH of 13.5), providing the ideal conditions for its active ingredients to thrive.

The powerful formula of ImproxTM includes essential ions that work synergistically to promote animal health and performance.

Improx™ combines monomeric and polymeric silicic acid in an alkaline solution with fructooligosaccharides (FOS). This unique combination stimulates the membranes associated with lymphoid tissue, especially enteric (GALT) and respiratory (BALT), leading to the activation and proliferation of immune cells, including CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes.

Improx ™ significantly strengthens respiratory defense mechanisms by stimulating immune cells, improving pathogen clearance, and boosting the activity of CD8+ and CD4+ T cells, which are crucial for adaptive immunity.

With the inclusion of silicic acid, Improx™ not only promotes skeletal and tissue integrity in poultry but also supports respiratory health, reducing disease susceptibility.

ADDIX designed and performed controlled, and field studies that have shown that silicic acid has multiple benefits to support growth, health and performance in animal production.
