Buyer intent coverage
Xylanase (feed enzyme) — what it is, where it is used, how it is chosen
Xylanase targets the arabinoxylans in wheat, rye, triticale and DDGS, which makes it the default NSP enzyme in Canadian diets built on western wheat and barley rather than on corn. Prairie feed mills and Ontario poultry integrators are the main buyers, usually as part of an enzyme package alongside phytase. Every supplier uses its own activity unit system, so quotations are only comparable once the unit basis and the intended diet are stated.
Primary uses
- Degrading arabinoxylans in wheat, rye, triticale and DDGS diets
- Reducing digesta viscosity in poultry
- Supporting energy matrix credits in least-cost formulation
Applications
- Broiler, turkey and layer feeds on wheat-based diets
- Swine grower and finisher feeds with co-products
- Premix and enzyme package manufacture
Advantages
- Well matched to Canadian wheat and barley based diets
- Available in thermostable coated grades for pelleted feed
- Commonly combined with phytase in a single enzyme programme
Limitations to consider
- Activity units are not standardised across suppliers, so nominal figures cannot be compared directly
- Response varies with the raw material mix and is diet-specific
- Heat losses during conditioning must be planned for
How to choose the right grade
- State the cereal and co-product mix in the target diet
- Ask for the activity unit system and the assay method
- Confirm thermostability against actual conditioning conditions
- Buyers searching for an alternative or second-source supplier should state the incumbent specification they are matching, because a like-for-like comparison depends on declared content, physical form and documentation rather than on the material name alone.
Typical grades
- Coated thermostable granulate
- Powder for mash feeds
- Liquid for post-pellet application
Comparable materials — how Xylanase (feed enzyme) sits against alternatives
- Multi-enzyme NSP blends where several substrates are present
- Beta-glucanase where barley and oats dominate the diet
Comparable-material reference. Grade selection is confirmed at RFQ against your process.
Procurement coverage
How to specify, order and receive Xylanase (feed enzyme)
Written for procurement, quality and technical buyers in Canada and the United States. No numeric price, MOQ, stock or lead-time value is published — those are confirmed per shipment in the quotation and against the confirmed batch.
How buyers specify at RFQ
- Declared activity units per gram and the assay method used to measure them
- Thermostability rating and the pelleting or conditioning window it covers
- Presentation — coated granulate, uncoated powder or liquid for post-pellet application
- Carrier identity, particle size and dust level for premix blending
- Recovery data after conditioning and after the intended storage period
- Cereal and co-product profile of the target diet
Packaging options (industry-standard)
- 25 kg bag or fibre drum — the usual micro-ingredient format
- Foil-lined or moisture-barrier packaging for hygroscopic and oxidation-sensitive actives
- Carton or pail for very low-inclusion actives handled by hand
- Packaging options and available pack sizes are confirmed with each quotation.
Storage & handling
- Store cool, dry and sealed; potency loss accelerates with heat and humidity
- Keep original moisture-barrier packaging closed until the blend is made
- Use first-in, first-out rotation and respect the declared retest or shelf-life date
- Keep away from heat sources and steam lines; activity loss is cumulative and irreversible
Documentation available
- Technical data sheet (TDS) stating the declared activity or potency and the assay method
- Safety data sheet (SDS) in the format required for Canadian import
- Certificate of analysis (COA) with the batch activity or potency result
- Stability and overage guidance for the intended pelleting or blending process
- Documentation is confirmed per batch at quotation; availability depends on the grade and supplier offered.

Technical & procurement detail
Functional role of xylanase in feed+
Xylanase breaks down arabinoxylans, the soluble non-starch polysaccharides that raise digesta viscosity in wheat, rye and barley diets. Lower viscosity means better nutrient contact and, very practically, drier litter in a broiler house.
Specifying the grade+
Activity units are supplier-specific and cannot be compared directly between products. State the cereal base of your diet, the conditioning temperature and whether the enzyme is added in the mixer or post-pellet.
Documentation and specification+
Feed grade material is quoted against the specification your mill or premix formulation requires. Allzone confirms grade, declared content, physical form and any carrier or coating with the supplier before quoting, and shares the technical data sheet and safety data sheet for the exact material offered.
Frequently asked questions
Can xylanase activity units be compared between suppliers?+
No. Each producer defines its own assay, so dose is set by the supplier's recommendation for your diet rather than by unit count.
Is this quoted as feed grade material?+
Yes. Feed grade is quoted as a separate specification from food or technical grade, with its own documentation for the exact material offered.
What packaging is available?+
Packaging is confirmed with the supplier at quotation for the grade and quantity discussed.
Can you deliver to feed mills across Canada?+
Yes. LTL and FTL freight is arranged across Ontario, Quebec and Western Canada, with container-direct supply for repeat volumes.
