Non GM Policy
As a matter of policy, Allen & Page has taken a positive attitude towards producing non-genetically modified feed.
Non-GM Ingredients
We use only identity preserved soya and maize grown from non-GM seed. Whilst these crops are not guaranteed, we feel we have taken every reasonable precaution to ensure that you and your horse have minimal exposure to any possible GM presence. We show all our ingredients on our labels.
What is 'Natural'?
By natural, we mean that we do not use manufactured - nature identical - ingredients - only the real thing!
At Allen & Page, we have a policy of only using identity preserved non-GM ingredients in our mill and we only use premium grade vegetable oils - no recovered oils such as chip fat, no animal fats, and no fishmeal. We do not use the traditional gelatine coating (an animal by-product) to protect our vitamins. We do not use waste products from the human food industry such as biscuit meal and all of the herbs used are -real- dried herbs -not flavourings. We do not select ingredients which have been processed using harsh chemical solvents (hexane).
Our quality assured mill is ISO9001 Approved, UFAS Feed Assured, Soil Association Licensed and Vegetarian Society Approved.

Our products are manufactured in our licensed premises using quality assured ingredients under strictly controlled production conditions and conforms to the requirements of EU and UK legislation governing the manufacture of animal feeding stuffs. Allen & Page monitors for the presence of specified naturally occurring prohibited substances (NOPS) as required under the rules of racing and other affiliated competitions which are in line with BETA/UFAS NOPS guidelines.
