("Walcom" or "the Company")
Walcom launches Alpha Project ('a-Project')
Walcom (AIM: WALG) is please to announce that at the VIV China 2009 ("VIV"),
which was held at the China International Exhibition Centre in Beijing between
19 October and 21 October 2009, the Company launched its 'a-Project', a
cost-optimised solution for compound feed, which was the culmination of six
years of research by the Company. Professor Yang Hongxun, Technical Director of
Walcom, presented a report describing the new initiative at the VIV Animal
Nutrition Forum.
The Board believes that the new range of products which are being launched under
the 'a-Project' will play an important role in animal digestion, absorption and
utilisation of feed. They are expected to significantly improve energy and
protein nutrient utilisation efficiency, thus enhancing animal productivity
through physiological regulation and proprietary positional enzymatic
dissolution functions. The Company's research work has enabled it to design a
dietary formulation with reduced nutrient levels which yields the required
growth rates in animals to help the Company's customers reduce costs and improve
profitability. To coincide with the launch of the 'a-Project', the Company has
re-branded its products and marketing materials.
During this uncertain cycle in the economy, the Board is aware that both
existing and potential customers are looking for ways to reduce their high feed
costs. The Board is confident that Walcom's 'a-Project' can help feed companies
to control costs by utilising the Company's cost-optimisation program.
