There is a strategic opportunity for products that not only satisfy pets but stimulate a joyful response perceptible by their parents. SPF reinvents palatability to create pets’ and pet owners’ sensorial satisfaction, making mealtime a shared happy moment.

Our focus on pet well-being is completed with an innovative, sustainably-minded approach. Pet well-being The well-being of pets is at the heart of our mission. For us, this commitment starts with ensuring the well-being of every pet we interact with when developing our solutions. Happy tasters, reliable answers One of the core activities of Diana Pet food is to develop palatants that improve the aroma and taste of pet food. As part of our research program, the performance of our solution is systematically assessed by expert cats and dogs hosted in Panelis, our pet-friendly measurement centers. Panelis has always been strongly committed to pets’ well-being for both ethical and scientific reasons. “Representative and reliable answers can only be obtained with healthy, happy and unstressed pets.” says Christelle Tobie, Panelis Business Development Manager. “At Panelis, cats and dogs enjoy living conditions modeled after real-life home environment. They are actively stimulated and socialized through varied activities such as education, grooming, running and also canine and feline shows with skilled and devoted animal technicians.” Accountability at all times, alternatives wherever possible To sustain our commitment to pet well-being, we’ve also created an Animal Ethics Committee that evaluates all research projects involving animals carried out by ourselves and our partners. Members of this committee include internal animal welfare specialists, scientists, and non-scientific employees, as well as external experts. Together, they objectively ensure that all procedures fully respect the well-being of animals. In parallel, we work closely with emerging and alternative technologies to enable product development without the use of animal. This includes initiatives such as innovative screening methods conducted with in vitro models based on cat and dog physiology. Innovation Our research and development teams draw on cross-divisional expertise from the entire Symrise Group and beyond — their combined creative and innovative thinking helps transform varied customer briefs into the most effective solutions possible By bringing cutting-edge solutions to the market, we help customers always stay one step ahead. Our expert scientists investigate the performance drivers for pet food and pet care products, developing partnerships with companies, universities and scientific institutes from around the world. They come together as part of a holistic research and innovation strategy that unites extensive knowledge on product attributes, animal specificities and pet owners’ expectations.
