United States · Listed on Nasdaq (BCPC)
Balchem Corporation is a US manufacturer of specialty ingredients, listed on NASDAQ under the ticker BCPC and based in Montvale, New Jersey. It reports in segments for Human Nutrition & Health, Animal Nutrition & Health, and Specialty Products, which includes Plant Nutrition and Performance Gases. For agriculture, the most relevant part is Animal Nutrition & Health, which provides nutritional solutions for ruminants, swine, poultry, aquaculture and companion animals, built on encapsulation, mineral chelation and choline production.
In animal feeding, many nutrients are partly broken down or poorly absorbed before they reach the point where the animal can use them. Encapsulation protects a nutrient, for example as it passes through the rumen of a dairy cow, while chelation binds minerals into forms the animal absorbs more readily. Balchem products such as ReaShure RP Choline, AminoShure-XM and NitroShure are designed for this kind of use. Their value on a farm depends on the species, production stage and diet, and on the strength of the trial evidence behind them.
