Flaked Corn
The corn flakes are processed through steam maturation and mechanical pelletizing, which softens the structure of the corn grains and highly gelatinizes the starch, thereby significantly enhancing the digestion and absorption efficiency of the raw materials by pets. Research shows that matured and flaky corn not only reduces unabsorbed residues, but its flaky form also optimizes the texture and palatability of pet food. In addition, this process can reduce processing costs, minimize raw material waste, and at the same time, inactivate potential harmful substances through high-temperature treatment to ensure product safety.

Product Introduction
The flaky corn, through the process of "steam maturation + mechanical flaking", achieves a high degree of starch gelatinization and granular structure softening. This not only significantly enhances the digestion and absorption efficiency of pets but also offers advantages in terms of quality, safety and cost, making it an excellent raw material for pet food.
Improve digestion and palatability
The highly gelatinized starch makes it easier for pets' stomachs and intestines to decompose and absorb, reducing undigested residues. Flaky form can optimize the texture of pet food, enhance palatability and make it more acceptable to pets.
Ensure product safety
High-temperature steam treatment during production can inactivate potential harmful substances (such as mycotoxins, etc.) in corn raw materials, reducing safety risks from the processing stage and ensuring the safety of pet consumption.
Reduce production and raw material costs
The tablet pressing process is relatively simple, which can reduce processing energy consumption and costs. At the same time, it can reduce the loss of raw materials during processing, minimize waste, and help enterprises control production costs.
