Marriage’s launches new Nutri Pressed range

Marriage’s has expanded its small animal range with the launch of Nutri Pressed line which features 13 products, formulated specifically for rabbits, guinea pigs, chinchillas, hamsters, gerbils, rats and mice.

The new range marks phase two of the brand’s new identity and follows the launch of its indoor and aviary bird relaunch last month.

The Nutri Pressed range is presented in a new packaging and is available in the form of pellets or mixes.

Marriage’s new small animal range is produced using the Nutri Pressed method which combines expert nutrition with cool pressing technology, for “superior” nutrient content and flavour.

Cooler processing temperatures help to retain more of the nutrients which may otherwise be lost during higher temperature manufacturing methods.

The herbivore diets for pets such as rabbits and guinea pigs are naturally high in fibre to help support digestive health. For pets such as hamsters and rats, who have a different digestive system with less reliance on fibre, Marriage’s has designed specific products to mimic their naturally omnivorous diet.

All the Nutri Pressed diets have added linseed, a natural source of Omega 3 and 6 to help support a healthy skin and coat, while a prebiotic helps to support a healthy digestive tract.

There is no added sugar and no artificial colours, and the package features a new design, clear product names and key call outs.

Every pack also includes the Marriage’s Six Step Well-being Plan, providing useful feeding tips and helpful ways to support small animal health and well-being.

Additionally, new pack sizes have also been introduced across the category to cater for customer purchasing requirements, with weights ranging from 750g all the way up to 10kg.

Sarah Kitson, head of Marketing at WHM Pet Group at Marriage’s, said: ,“Bursting with tasty ingredients, our Nutri Pressed products are an exciting alternative to traditional extruded nuggets. What we really love about our Nutri Pressed small animal feeds is how natural they really are. Due to the way that they are manufactured they are not over processed, which results in a whole host of benefits.

“Marriage’s we know that your customers want the very best for their pets and so do we.” said Sarah Kitson. “With our smart, new packaging on the outside and our new Nutri Pressed formulations on the inside, we are extremely proud to be able to provide optimum nutrition and the dietary preferences for each different species.”
