A.W.P. Animal Wellness Products was founded in 2002 by Paolo Cristofori. The headquarter and the production facility are located in the Modena area.
A.W.P.’s vocation has always been marked by scientific, technological and applicative research in the field of botanical extracts and Phytomolecules for animal health. The first research was conducted in the USA, at the Midwest Veterinary Service Center, and continued for the next 20 years in Institutes and Universities such as Universidade do Estado De Santa Caterina (Brazil), Center for Food Safety-University of Georgia (USA), Kasetsart University (Thailand), Public Institute for Animal Health <<Bruno Ubertini>> (Italy), Poznan University (Poland) and others.
Over the years A.W.P. has extended its presence in more than 60 countries through a network of highly qualified veterinarians, nutritionists, distributors and agents.
In 2024 A.W.P. increased its staff by 30%
Milestones in the development of A.W.P. over the years have included:
- Construction of a plant for the selection of pharmaceutical grade Phytomolecules from botanical extracts
- Creation of a system to incorporate polyphenols from purified lignin with low molecular weight (5000 Daltons) in its products as toxin binders
- Special microencapsulation system (net-shape microencapsulation) to perform the release of organic acids in undissociated form in the biological districts of animals (Stop & Go technology)
- Extensive experimental programs in all animal species to optimize the effects of products, maximizing the synergy among Phytomolecules and excluding negative interactions between active ingredients
- Extensive experimental programs in all animal species dedicated to the synergistic effects of Phytomolecules with derivates of Short-Medium-Chain Fatty Acids
- Patent filed for solutions capable of significantly increasing the efficiency of antibiotics in the presence of resistant bacteria
