Our expertise dates back on 1901, year of creation of the

very first natural product line for pet care and pet health

in veterinary French market. Nowadays, we represent a

multinational team of experts in clinical pet nutrition, pet food

producers and professional breeders of cats and dogs, joined

by the passion and love for animals. We base the development

of our products on scientific evidences, we perform studies

on our foods in a completely ethic and cruelty-free way, using

our highest-quality, completely natural pet foods and pet care

products on animals living in family conditions or that are

naturally affected by disease. In this way, we cure them for free

and at the same time we prove the efficacy of our products.

All our efforts, in the last 120 years, are aimed to ensure the

wellbeing and longevity of Your pets.

“Your four-legged friend is the ultimate goal of all our actions, and every choice is made to promote his health and wellness”

PhilosophyWe select our raw materials with care and attention; to treat them with respect and competence we chose

to work with cutting-edge technology and very strict quality standards, typical of the production of food for

human use; to guarantee a solution to every nutritional need we formulate our products following the most

recent developments in veterinary nutritional science, because all our efforts have a single and only target:

Diusa Pet, the pet in the first place.

“Our entire approach is Science-based, as the most solid foundation to build up any nutritional concept”

ScienceHuman being developed Science in order to improve all

aspects of life, acquiring experience and knowledge as a

solid base to assure the future of our planet.

Nutrition is one of the most important among Sciences,

since with balanced and appropriate nutrition is possible

to reach better health and as a consequence harmony and

wellbeing.

Our Scientific Team, along with the constant laboratory

activity (both in-house and within referral labs), develops

fully “cruelty free” and ethical scientific studies, in

cooperation with key opinion leader professors and

institutions. This scientific attitude enables us to

constantly improve.

We promote two different kind of field research:

- Feeding trials on healthy animals: we measure

parameters like the palatability and general wellbeing of

pets, including condition of fur and skin, stools and other

vital non-invasive parameters;

- Clinical trials on sick animals, with pre-existing

pathological condition (already sick), that we support with

the most appropriate nutritional solution, in order to prove

its goodness and continuously improve our formulas and

their efficacy.

This approach enables us to be always innovative and

cutting-edge in our formulations and feeding approach,

with one unique goal: to improve the health of our four-

legged friends.

“The unique way to have healthy food is to carefully select your ingredients and treat them with respect.”

TechnologyOur self-owned Italy-based pet food production

Company uses selected, natural and very qualitative

ingredients, processed with the most advanced

technologies. Since we know what we put inside our

kibbles, and we want to preserve the nutritional quality

of the ingredients, we “steam cook” all our products,

with a gentle thermal treatment essential to provide

digestibility and preserving at the same time as much

as possible the nutritional characteristics of the

selected ingredients.

Our production plant is certified by ISO 22000

(typically applied to human-grade food productions)

and ISO 9001. Along with that, we follow the Best

Practices of Manufacturing to combine the technology

and the respect of the natural environment, safety and

quality control, being able to count on a fully equipped

internal laboratory, where we can investigate and

ensure the quality of every food ingredient used and of

each finished product released.

“Selecting ingredients means knowing their origin, how they have been handled and what they contain deep inside their molecular structure. Definitively, that means becoming their lover.”

IngredientsThe protein sources selected by Diusa Pet for its

products must pass very strict quality controls

and analysis. In addition to a careful selection of

suppliers, chosen among those able to guarantee

the most qualitative and constant product over

time, all the ingredients of animal origin such

as fresh and dehydrated chicken, duck, fish,

lamb and deer undergo several careful analysis.

Freshness and safety are tested by microbiology

and possible contaminants, and their nutritional

value is investigated, determining their digestibility

and analyzing in detail its complete amino acid

composition, which corresponds to the quality of

the “bricks” that make up proteins.

This is the most important parameter of

completeness of a protein source.

The sources of lipids, as important as those of proteins, are equally controlled: fish oil and chicken fat are preserved with

natural antioxidants, they are evaluated for their freshness (degree of oxidation and acidity) and analyzed in detail to unveil

their composition in essential fatty acids, again the “building blocks” that compose lipids. This is made to guarantee the

most optimal relationships between essential omega-6 and omega-3.

The sources of carbohydrates, essential to form the kibbles, are

not less controlled. In addition to a careful analysis regarding

the presence of contaminants, we select these key ingredients

according to the digestibility of their starch, the energy

reserve molecule. Depending on its ability to release, during its

digestion, simple sugars such as glucose, starches divide into

two categories, those with high and those with a low glycemic

index. Diusa Pet strictly chooses sources of low glycemic index

starch for its maintenance products (naturally purified pea

starch, sweet potato and whole grains) and highly digestible

starch sources (rice and white potato) for some products of

the Care line, where the nutritional requirements are to supply

energy in the shortest time possible.

Phytonutrientsand other functional ingredients

Diusa Pet, in its constant search for innovation, has decided to integrate its products with natural phytonutrients and

other natural ingredients characterized by a powerful functional effect.

Diusa Pet has very carefully selected these elements by virtue of their proven efficacy, quality and safety, and uses them

to enrich its nutritional solutions.

The powerful natural complex of aromatic plants consisting of cloves, turmeric, rosemary and lemon is a common

characteristic of all Holistic products and carries a very high content in active substances. It has a high antioxidant and

protective effect, being a valid aid in the prevention of cellular aging, limiting the effects of time on the body’s vital tissues

thanks to the polyphenols and other compounds.

The Aloe vera used by Diusa Pet is completely natural, produced according to a patented process that guarantees a

very high level of active substances. These are protected to ensure quality and quantity, being stable and resistant in

the finished product, and making it an important aid in the formation and maintenance of the immune system, also

promoting health and healing of the skin.

The natural root of ginseng has been known for centuries in traditional oriental medicine for its health benefits. We have

decided to use this precious ingredient also in our products to boost the association with other phytonutrients of proven

efficacy.

“We find everything in nature. Nature is our mother, is our inspiration, our guide in this life.”

Diusa Pet is very innovative in introducing into the pet food market the flowers of Cannabis

sativa L.. The precious ingredient selected proceeds from an extremely highly selected

variety of Cannabis, cultivated with natural means (no any added chemical additive) to

guarantee very high quality levels, complete safety and absence of toxicity. The parts

used are the female inflorescence and the apical leaflets, in which the active ingredients

concentrate.

Taking only the best from nature, we decided to use dried pumpkin, an extraordinary source

of soluble fiber, to support intestinal well-being and nutrient absorption.

Diusa Pet uses an innovative combination of three selected and highly purified yeast

strains, from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Cyberlindnera jadinii species. Unlike the yeasts

commonly used by the feed industry, purchased already “exhausted” as by-products of other

transformations, those used in Diusa Pet’s products are grown specifically to the purpose

and according to their quality: they are able to stimulate the gut-associated immune system

(thanks to the quality of β- glucans contained in the cell wall) and to bind pathogens (thanks

to the selected and isolated MOS).

In the continuous research and selection of highly purified functional ingredients, Diusa Pet chose to use inactivated cells of beneficial

lactic bacteria, such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Lactobacillus casei (inactivated and freeze-dried according to a species-specific

process called tyndallization), which are titled to know exactly the number of bacterial cells that are added in the product. This allows a

very precise dosage and functionality proven by clinical tests, as inactivated cells maintain their structure and their ability to “dialogue”

with enterocytes, promoting immunity and competing with pathogens for the free epithelial adhesion sites.

In addition to high quality blue fish oil, wild caught from sustainable sources, we also use

additional sources of omega-3 from seaweed (Schizochytrium sp., rich in DHA) very useful to

counteract the inflammatory processes at all levels and in all body districts

The sugar cane fiber used is desaccharified and highly purified, and decreases the energy of

the food ingested by animals with a tendency to be overweight. Moreover, it is a very precious

ingredient to decrease the absorption rate of glucose released by the digestion of starches, a

factor that contributes to the management of normal blood sugar. Moreover, it promotes intestinal

peristalsis. In animals that exhibit hairball regurgitation, an increase in fiber can help to reduce

their formation by promoting their passage through the gastrointestinal tract.

“Health is not everything, but without health everything is nothing.”

Health & wellbeingHealth of your pet is the ultimate goal of all our action.

That’s how we started to explain our Philosophy, and here it is the conclusion of the

journey: without health “everything is nothing”.

Health is not only a physical factor; it is also a psychic and emotional wellbeing.

Only when body, mind and soul are healthy the holistic approach has been realized: the

result is, in fact, not the mere sum of the wellbeing of the three parts; it is instead the

synergistic effect that amplifies the overall performance of any live being.

This is Alleva: nutritious products, able to care about all components of our lives and to

influence positively the mind and soul of our beloved through the scientifically proven

combination of simple, highly qualitative ingredients and powerful phytonutrients, treated

with love, respect and passion, with the most innovative technology and following our

certified, highest standard of production.

This is Alleva. This is Love.
