Discover How Our Kibble is Made with the Freshlock™ Process
At Ultimate Pet Foods, we believe that the way dog food is made is just as important as what goes into it. That’s why we created our unique Freshlock™ cooking process — a gentle method designed to protect the natural goodness of freshly prepared ingredients, ensuring your dog gets maximum nutrition in every bite.
Why Freshlock™?

Most traditional kibble is cooked at extremely high temperatures, which can damage delicate nutrients, proteins, and oils. The result is often food that looks fine but has lost much of its natural nutritional value.
With Freshlock™, we do things differently. Our process is designed to lock in freshness, protect natural vitamins, and preserve the taste of real meat, fish, fruit, and vegetables.
✅ Benefits of the Freshlock™ Process
-
✅ Gentle Cooking at 82°C – Protects proteins and ensures they remain highly digestible.
-
✅ Locks in Freshness – Retains flavour and natural goodness from freshly prepared meat and fish.
-
✅ Preserves Delicate Nutrients – Protects vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants in fruits and vegetables.
-
✅ Protects Natural Oils – Ensures omega-3 and other healthy fats stay effective.
-
✅ Better Taste & Aroma – Dogs love the rich, meaty flavour that Freshlock™ delivers.
How Freshlock™ Works
-
Freshly Prepared Ingredients – We start with real meat, fish, fruits, vegetables, and functional herbs.
-
Gentle Steam Cooking – Our unique Freshlock™ process cooks ingredients at just 82°C, a temperature proven to retain nutrients.
-
Nutrient Preservation – Because we never overcook, vitamins, minerals, and oils stay intact.
-
Kibble Shaping – Ingredients are carefully shaped into crunchy kibble, providing dental health benefits.
-
Natural Flavour Coating – We use natural oils and stock to coat each kibble piece, creating a flavour dogs love.

Freshlock™ vs. Traditional Kibble
