Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, Oct. 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Acadian Animal Wellness today announced the global launch of Tasco®, an optimized feed technology for animal feed products. Based on the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum, Tasco is a premium marine bioactive technology with prebiotic, stress-relieving, and immune-supporting effects that enhance animal resilience and productivity while supporting improved quality of life.
“TASCO’s marine bioactive technologies represent a new chapter in Acadian Animal Wellness, combining marine conservation with rigorous science,” said Enrico Boccaletti, Vice President of Global Portfolio and Strategic Partnerships at Acadian. “Backed by research across multiple animal species, TASCO supports consistent productivity and quality while enhancing resilience during critical periods. This is a research-backed, naturally derived technology that is effective even under demanding conditions such as heat, transport, competition, and harsh environments.”
Studies on the mechanism of action of Tasco provide evidence supporting these performance benefits. Studies in multiple animal species have demonstrated its effects on gut microbiota balance, dietary fiber digestion, and nutrient absorption, as well as its antioxidant properties that help reduce free radicals and oxidative stress. These mechanisms work together to explain why Tasco can support animal resilience and productivity even during periods of environmental and production stress.
TASCO’s feed technology is available worldwide through Acadian Animal Wellness and its network of business partners, and is used in feed formulations for livestock and horses, pet food, and aquaculture feed.
