Sipena is a French specialist in controlled-release coating technology for animal nutrition. Founded in 2015 and headquartered in Saint-Malo, Brittany, the company develops, produces, and markets innovative nutritional solutions that improve the efficacy of additives in livestock digestive systems.
Its patented multilayer coating technology enables precise, targeted delivery of active ingredients—such as amino acids—at specific points in the digestion process, including rumen bypass for ruminants or intestinal release. This supports better nutrient utilization, animal performance, health and welfare, cost control, and reduced environmental nitrogen outputs. Sipena operates a modern, automated production facility in France capable of coating particles from 100 microns to 5 centimeters and offers both its own product range and customized toll manufacturing services for feed industry clients.
The company primarily serves ruminant and monogastric animal nutrition markets, exporting a large share of its output to Europe, Latin America, and the Middle East. It supplies feed manufacturers and specialized distributors globally. Sipena is an independent SAS company led by founder and president David Descrot, with approximately 10-19 employees and annual revenue around 10 million euros. It positions itself as a niche leader in precision feeding solutions through its proprietary coating expertise.
