About Us.

From animal feed to plastic additives

Founded in 1969 in Dalum (Lower Saxony, Germany) as a cooperative of local farmers, DTW (Dalumer Trocknungswerk) evolved from a service provider for drying potatoes and grain into a processor of by-products from the baking and pasta industries – and finally into a manufacturer of high-quality additives for the plastics industry.
