Eggshell membrane heals chronic sores
At Nortura’s Revetal facility, thousands of eggs are cracked each day to produce egg ingredients and egg-based products, such as waffles. But what happens to the shells? Each year, 800 tonnes of eggshells are generated. For years, the solution was to pay for disposal until a new, innovative technology was introduced to make better use of this valuable resource.

High quality proteins made available through a gentle process
Proteins – everyone needs them, but some consumer groups cannot seem to get enough of them. Norilia has implemented a gentle, trade secret protected process to make the most out of poultry proteins. This process makes the proteins more easily available and they can be used in a wide range of applications.
