Dogs and cats do not perceive color in the same hue as their owners. Therefore, petfood manufacturers tailor product hue toward the buyer.
Let DDW create the colors for your pet food application. Whether you manufacture wet or dry pet food, we create colors that are easy to apply with total consistency from batch to batch.
