At Grubio Asia, we believe that innovation should benefit every member of the family—including our four-legged friends. By applying Grubio Group’s cutting-edge Microencapsulation Technology to high-quality marine ingredients, we are setting a new standard in pet health through the Köning & Ritter premium range.
The Star Ingredient: Microencapsulated Schizochytrium sp. Oil
One of our most significant achievements is the microencapsulation of oil derived from Schizochytrium sp., a microscopic algae naturally rich in Omega-3 fatty acids (specifically DHA).
While fish oil is a common source of Omega-3, Schizochytrium sp. is a sustainable, plant-based, and highly concentrated alternative. However, these oils are extremely sensitive to oxidation and can have a strong scent. This is where Grubio’s expertise comes in:
- Protection against Oxidation: Our microencapsulation creates a protective barrier around the algae oil, preventing it from turning rancid and ensuring the DHA remains potent until it is digested.
- Neutral Taste and Odor: By “locking” the oil inside a microscopic shell, we eliminate the strong marine smell, making the Koning & Ritter products highly palatable for even the pickiest dogs.
Why Koning & Ritter? The Benefits for Your Dog
The integration of microencapsulated Schizochytrium sp. oil into the Köning & Ritter range provides targeted health benefits that support a dog’s well-being throughout its life:
1. Cognitive Function and Brain Health
DHA is a primary structural component of the brain. In puppies, it supports healthy brain development and learning abilities. In senior dogs, it helps maintain cognitive function and mental alertness.
2. Radiant Coat and Healthy Skin
Omega-3 fatty acids are essential for maintaining the skin’s lipid barrier. The Köning & Ritter range helps reduce skin inflammation, leading to a shinier coat and helping to manage common skin sensitivities or itchiness.
3. Heart and Joint Support
Microencapsulated algae oil acts as a natural anti-inflammatory. This supports cardiovascular health and helps maintain joint mobility, which is crucial for active dogs and breeds prone to hip or joint issues.
4. Maximum Bioavailability
Thanks to our controlled-release technology, the nutrients in Köning & Ritter products aren’t lost during digestion. They are released exactly where they can be best absorbed, ensuring your dog receives the full nutritional value of every serving.
A Sustainable Choice for Premium Care
By choosing Schizochytrium sp. oil over traditional fish oil, Köning & Ritter also offers a more sustainable solution, reducing the impact on ocean ecosystems while providing superior purity (free from heavy metals often found in fish).
