Our ORIJEN™ Ingredient

ORIJEN pet food is made from only the finest ingredients, and every step of formulating each diet is monitored and controlled from start to finish. Our ingredients are selected to be nutritious and nourishing, so your pet thrives.

WHAT DOES FRESH OR RAW MEAN?

Every bag of ORIJEN food is packed with fresh or raw ingredients to ensure the highest nutritional value and flavor, requiring less supplementation in our diets.

Fresh: Our fresh ingredients use refrigeration as the sole method of preservation.

Raw: Raw: our raw ingredients are frozen at their peak freshness.

Fact: Our Canadian kitchen includes a unique cold storage area nearly the size of two hockey rinks to store and mix our fresh ingredients.
