T-CL2 Cat Food Palatant


Product Overview


Cat Food Palatant T-CL2 is a liquid flavor enhancer specifically developed to solve the common challenge of picky feline eaters. Crafted with fresh, healthy marine fish as the primary ingredient, it leverages advanced biotechnology and precise heat treatment to preserve the raw materials’ natural aroma and functional properties. Unlike synthetic flavorings that often smell artificial, this palatant delivers a rich, authentic ocean-inspired fragrance that resonates with cats’ innate preference for fish-based flavors. Its liquid form ensures easy application—sprayed directly onto dry cat food, it coats kibble uniformly to boost taste and aroma, turning even plain diets into meals cats eagerly anticipate. Designed exclusively for cat food formulations, it complements extruded kibble, baked dry diets, and other nutritional products, making it a go-to solution for pet food manufacturers aiming to improve feline feed intake.


Product Benefits


Natural Marine Aroma Preservation

The combination of fresh marine fish and gentle heat treatment locks in the raw material’s natural scent—no artificial fragrances or masking agents required. This authenticity is critical for cats, which have highly sensitive noses; they can detect synthetic additives and often reject food with unnatural smells. Cat Food Palatant T-CL2’s oceanic aroma feels familiar to cats, encouraging them to approach and eat their food consistently.


Significant Palatability Boost for Picky Cats

Many cat owners struggle with pets that refuse standard kibble, leading to wasted food and concerns about nutrient gaps. This palatant addresses this by enhancing the flavor profile of cat food at a molecular level—its fish-derived compounds trigger cats’ taste receptors, making even basic diets more appealing. Manufacturers report noticeable improvements in feed intake rates when using the product, particularly with finicky breeds or cats transitioning to new diets.


Wide Compatibility with Cat Food Types

Whether formulating extruded kibble (the most common cat food type), baked dry diets (popular for premium lines), or even semi-moist treats, Cat Food Palatant T-CL2 integrates seamlessly. Its liquid consistency adheres well to dry surfaces without making kibble soggy, preserving the texture cats prefer while adding flavor. It also works with both grain-in and grain-free formulations, no adjustments needed.


Stable Physical Properties

The palatant maintains a smooth texture free from mildew or gas formation, even in varying storage conditions. A key advantage is its temperature responsiveness: while it remains stable at room temperature, its fluidity increases slightly with heat—making it easier to spray onto warm kibble post-production (e.g., after extrusion or baking) without clumping. This stability reduces production headaches and ensures consistent performance batch after batch.


Usage


Application Scope

Cat Food Palatant T-CL2 is ideal for all dry cat food formats, including extruded kibble, baked diets, and crunchy treats. 


Recommended Dosage

The standard inclusion rate is 2% to 6% of the total formula—this range balances flavor intensity and cost-effectiveness. For budget-friendly lines or diets with mild flavor needs, 2%–3% is sufficient; for premium products targeting very picky cats, 4%–6% delivers a more pronounced fish flavor. Always test small batches to adjust intensity based on your target audience.


Application Method

The most effective way to use the palatant is to spray it uniformly over the surface of dry cat food after the main production process (e.g., after extrusion and cooling). Use specialized spraying equipment to ensure even coverage—this prevents uneven flavor distribution (e.g., some kibble being too strong, others too weak). Avoid spraying onto overly hot kibble (above 60°C), as this may degrade some flavor compounds.


FAQ


Is Cat Food Palatant T-CL2 safe for kittens and senior cats?

Yes. The palatant is made from food-grade marine fish and contains no harmful additives, making it safe for all life stages—from kittens (which need enticing food to support growth) to senior cats (which may lose appetite due to age-related sensory changes).


How long does the palatant retain its aroma after opening?

Once opened, the palatant should be used as quickly as possible—ideally within 30 days—when stored in a cool, dry place. Sealing the container tightly after each use slows aroma loss, but prolonged exposure to air will gradually reduce its flavor intensity.


Why is the pH level ≤4.0?

The low pH (≤4.0) is a natural result of the marine fish ingredients and biotechnology process—it helps preserve the palatant’s freshness, inhibits bacterial growth, and enhances the stability of its flavor compounds. This pH level is safe for cats and does not affect the overall pH of the final cat food product.


Can I mix the palatant into dry cat food before packaging, or does it need to be applied at the last minute?

For best results, apply the palatant at the final stage (post-production, pre-packaging). Mixing it into dry ingredients earlier in the process may cause the liquid to be absorbed into kibble cores, reducing its surface-level flavor impact—cats primarily taste and smell food from the surface, so surface coating is key.
