Experience, expertise, excellence |
|
Based on selected strains of Bacillus subtilis, or Lactobacillus, CALSPORIN and FINELACT have achieved significant success around the world.
CALSPORIN sales in the U.S., a livestock superpower, have increased exponentially, requiring expanded production facilities in 2006. In September 2006, CALSPORIN became one of the first probiotics to be approved under the EU’s new feed additive regulation. Calpis subsequently became the first Japanese manufacturer to receive FAMI-QS quality approval, essential for EU sales, but also strengthening our continued expansion in Latin America and Asia. |

Our range of animal feed products |
Our intestinal flora laboratory is unique |
 |
Intestinal flora represent a complex ecosystem subject to multiple variables. Influencing the intestinal environment to improve health is exciting. People know that the interaction of gut health, eating habits and lifestyle affect the quality of life.
Calpis maintains Japan’s only specialized laboratory for researching intestinal flora. We believe reliable R&D is the first step for a healthy gut environment, and therefore we provide analytical services related to intestinal flora to food manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, and other research institutions. |
