Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops ChitoPal-D, a chitosan solution for dental care in pets
Bad breath, plaque and gum inflammation in dogs and cats usually begin with the build-up of
bacteria on the teeth and gums, and if left unchecked can lead to bleeding, damage to the tissue
around the teeth and long-term oral health problems. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company
(VNF) has developed ChitoPal-D, whose main ingredient is chitosan — a natural polysaccharide
derived from chitin — that adheres to the teeth and gums and supports antibacterial action. As
a chitosan solution for dental care in pets, ChitoPal-D helps limit bacterial build-up, reduce
plaque formation and support periodontal health.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops Nano Chitosan Kito-Super to ease antibiotic pressure and improve animal health
Disease pressure and the overuse of antibiotics are creating serious challenges for the livestock and aquaculture sector. Aiming for a safer, more sustainable option, Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) has developed Nano Chitosan Kito-Super to support immunity, control disease-causing microorganisms and improve growth performance. As a nano chitosan solution for reducing antibiotics in farming, Kito-Super helps producers protect animal health biologically.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops ChitoPal-C, a chitosan solution to support cholesterol control in pets
Elevated cholesterol and triglycerides can quietly affect the metabolic health and quality of life
of dogs and cats, raising the question of how to support blood-lipid control in a way that is safe
and suitable for long-term use. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) has developed
ChitoPal-C, a chitosan-based product that binds fat and bile acids in the digestive tract so they
are harder to absorb and are excreted, helping reduce the amount of cholesterol entering the
blood. As a chitosan solution for cholesterol control in pets, ChitoPal-C is intended to support
metabolic health without replacing veterinary treatment.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops Kito-Sil, a nano chitosan silver complex to control pathogens and reduce antibiotic use
Disease pressure, polluted farming environments and a heavy reliance on antibiotics are
creating serious challenges for the livestock and aquaculture sector. Vietnam Food Joint Stock
Company (VNF) has developed Kito-Sil, a nano chitosan silver complex that combines the
biological activity of chitosan with the antibacterial power of silver ions to offer a safer, more
sustainable option. As a nano chitosan silver complex, Kito-Sil helps control pathogens in the
farming environment while reducing dependence on antibiotics.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops SSH-PLUS hydrolyzed squid liquid to replace imported squid liver products
Stricter requirements on quality and heavy-metal content are putting heavy pressure on the imported raw materials used by the animal feed industry, and imported squid liquid and squid liver paste can exceed permitted limits when their inputs are not consistently controlled. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) has developed SSH-PLUS hydrolyzed squid liquid, a natural squid-based feed ingredient that stimulates feeding, improves feed intake and adds easily digestible protein while keeping raw-material quality under control. As a domestic hydrolyzed squid liquid, SSH-PLUS gives feed producers an alternative to imported squid liver paste, squid liquid and squid liver powder.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops Ecovital EM, a biological water treatment for aquaculture ponds
Uneaten feed, organic waste and accumulated bottom sludge can steadily degrade water quality
in aquaculture ponds, releasing toxic gases and raising the risk of disease. Vietnam Food Joint
Stock Company (VNF) has developed Ecovital EM, a Bacillus spp. biological product that breaks
down organic matter quickly, stabilises pond water and supports a more sustainable farming
model. Used as a biological water treatment for aquaculture, Ecovital EM helps farmers keep
water conditions steady while limiting waste build-up in the pond.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops chitosan as a natural preservative for pet food
Fresh, raw and wet foods lose quality fast as microorganisms, mould and oxidation attack their colour, smell, texture and shelf life. From Vietnamese shrimp by-products, Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops chitosan — a natural polysaccharide derived from chitin — as a preservation solution for raw, fresh and wet pet food. In VNF trials, chitosan sharply reduced microbial and mould counts and helped extend shelf life, giving pet-food makers a way to protect quality while reducing their reliance on synthetic additives.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops AstaPal, a natural astaxanthin for pets that helps fight oxidative stress
Stress, low activity, aging and lingering illness can all raise the rate of oxidation inside a pet’s body, letting free radicals build up and damage cells. Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) addresses this with AstaPal, a natural astaxanthin for pets extracted from shrimp — a carotenoid known for its powerful antioxidant activity. By helping neutralise free radicals and protect cell membranes, AstaPal is designed to slow oxidative damage and support the everyday vitality of dogs and cats.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops VNF Shrimp Peptide to replace fish meal and ease feed-cost volatility
Fish meal is a staple protein in animal feed, but swings in its price and supply keep pressuring formulation costs. Working from Vietnamese shrimp raw material, Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) has developed VNF Shrimp Peptide, a highly digestible protein designed to support growth and reduce dependence on fish meal. For feed producers, VNF Shrimp Peptide offers a shrimp-based fish meal replacement that helps hold nutritional performance while giving formulators more control over cost.
Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) develops biological soil improvement solutions to restore degraded farmland
A nation’s growth strategy works best when it builds on core strengths and nurtures the people who will carry it forward. Acting on this belief, Vietnam Food Joint Stock Company (VNF) welcomed a group of interns from Board IV (the Private Economic Development Research Board) and shared how its research turns shrimp by-products into valuable inputs — a practical model of the circular economy from shrimp by-products. The visit showed young talent that innovation need not start from something grand; it can begin by re-examining the resources already at hand.
