Feed‑grade calcium carbonate is a high‑quality, safe inorganic calcium source specially processed for animal feed. It is produced from natural high‑purity limestone with strict purification to ensure low heavy metals, no harmful impurities. It is a widely used feed calcium supplement, mineral additive, and buffering agent for livestock, poultry, aquaculture, and pets. It is stable, non‑toxic, cost‑effective, and essential for animal growth, bone development, and production performance.
