Hydrolysed Collagen (Bovine), Hydrolysed Gelatine (Bovine), Collagen Hydrolysate (Bovine), Bovine Collagen Peptides

Hydrolysed bovine collagen is a protein derived from the connective tissues of cattle (animal origin), processed through hydrolysis to break it into smaller, easily digestible peptides. Its primary benefit is to support joint, skin, and coat health by providing bioavailable amino acids. Rather than in its natural form, it is utilised as a hydrolysed compound to optimise absorption and safety in pet food formulations.

Hydrolysed bovine collagen is included as a functional protein source to support joint and skin health claims, appealing to pet owners seeking targeted wellness benefits. Its inclusion also allows for label-friendly marketing, enhancing product differentiation in a competitive market.
