For over 20 years, Anibio has been marketing a range of organic pet care products and food supplements. In that time the market has advanced considerably. Michael Specht recalls that "when we started out, we were the first of our kind in the market. Some of our retail partners were perplexed when we unveiled natural food supplements and organic pet care products."

Anibio takes the demand for natural, species-specific food and care into account, using purely natural ingredients that have been organically cultivated and processed gently where possible. If regional cultivation is feasible, then the ingredients are sourced regionally. One special feature highlighted by Michael Specht is that many of the products are energised, a treatment that can promote protective and healing processes.
