Adisseo

Adisseo was born in 1939 in Commentry, France, as Alimentation Équilibrée, founded by Marcel Lingot. Over decades, it evolved: acquired by Rhône-Poulenc in 1971, became Aventis Animal Nutrition in 2000, turned into independent Adisseo under CVC Partners in 2002, joined China’s Bluestar in 2006, and ultimately fell under Sinochem by 2021. Through all that corporate reshuffling, the company stayed focused on feed additives and animal nutrition. The company operates production sites in France (Commentry, Saint-Clair-du-Rhône, Roussillon) and Spain (Burgos). These facilities are classified as high-risk due to chemical handling, reflecting their industrial scale. In 2013 they launched a major methionine plant in Nanjing, China, primarily serving Asia’s growing livestock market. On sustainability, Adisseo emphasizes workplace safety, emissions reduction, energy efficiency, and governance oversight. It reports annually on progress toward reducing greenhouse gases, water use, and energy consumption. ESG governance sits at the board level, underscoring its integration into long-term strategy and daily operations. Products and services include methionine (Rhodimet NP99, AT88), vitamins (Microvit), enzymes (Rovabio, Rovabio Advance), antioxidants (Selisseo), probiotics (Alterion), plus mineral additives, mycotoxin binders, and nutritional services. Adisseo also provides analytical tools such as NIR-based raw-material analysis and supports species-specific nutrition across poultry, swine, ruminants, and aquaculture.
