        No we do not harm animals in work. We are not even allowed animals on site! I would not like a job testing on animals as I love them especially dogs.

        A product we make (cobalt carbonate) is used in animal feed for cows as they do not produce vitamin b12 naturally. Vitamin b12 contains cobalt therefore they need a source of cobalt in there diet to produce this vitamin. This is where our cobalt carbonate comes in handy. It is mixed in with their food so they can produce vitamin b12
