Every second Friday of October, we celebrate World Egg Day to raise awareness for the power of the egg. Join us on October 14 to eggxplore the huge potential of our cracking little friends and how they positively impact our lives. For this year’s theme ‘Eggs for a better life’, we would like to take you on an eggxtraordinary journey in collaboration with the International Egg Commission. Meet the dsm-firmenich Egg Family and let our superheroes show you the egg’s incredible power to support the wellbeing of poultry, people and the planet.
For this year’s World Egg Day, all of the dsm-firmenich Egg family members come out of their shell to turn into the superheroes the world needs. They are not only tasty, they are also eggxtermely healthy, good for the planet and beneficial for our livelihoods.
Grandpa EggXpert has divided the family into three teams. Meet them below and follow our dsm-firmenich Egg Family on their mission.
Thanks to their high bioavailability and nutrient density, eggs have the capacity to directly improve human health around the world. Many of the essential vitamins and minerals found in eggs are key nutrients for a healthy, active lifestyle and to perform at your best.
At dsm-firmenich, we know that both the nature and the appearance of food are major criteria for consumers. As the dsm-firmenich Egg Family is on their mission to ensure people recognize eggs for their health benefits, we offer solutions to help egg producers achieve the specific egg yolk color consumers are looking for. Ultimately, preferences vary but consumers around the world recognize that a golden yolk invariably comes from a healthy hen.
