Entoprotech is a circular economy company engaged in organic/food waste treatment and processing. We are harnessing unique qualities of insects, particularly of BSF (Black Soldier Fly (Hermetia illucens)) in order to convert food waste into variety of advanced products
We are making money while contributing to resolution of such pressing problems like greenhouse gas emissions, lack of land for landfilling, high environmental footprint of protein production, shortage in protein for animal farming and others
Entoprotech is a hands-on player, with the roots deep in food industry and large-scale farming and protein production. We are on a forefront of the technology in cleantech and agritech, using best of Israeli tech developed inhouse and by our strategic partners in genetics , biochemistry and animal feed fields
Headquartered in Israel, Entoprotech has R&D activity in Israel and Russia and production facility processing 15 tons of organic waste daily
Two manufacturing facilities with capacities of 50 tons/day and 100 tons/day are in planning and construction phases
Among our products are defatted insect meal (high protein replacement of fishmeal), high quality insect fat that is currently used as feed and has many potential uses in cosmetics and pharma, frass (leftovers of larvae metabolic activity) which is high quality fertiliser
We are constantly looking for new partners and additional exciting usages for the products produced while treating food waste
FOOD WASTE IS A GLOBAL PROBLEM
Food loss and food waste is the decrease of food volume intended for human consumption in all stages of the food supply chain, from harvesting down to consumption, regardless of the reasons.
1.6 billion tons of food losses and waste that are formed in the world annually
Most of the food waste finds its way into landfills and produces methane, which is 25 times more potent greenhouse gas than the CO2.
UPCOMING PROTEIN DEFICIT
Protein consumption is on the rise globally due to the population growth and dramatic
changes in consumption.
Insects protein consumption has two main applications: feed for domestic animals and
human consumption.
It is estimated that the global population will reach 9.6 billion by 205
The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) estimates that food production will need to increase by 70%
Global meat consumption
Meat consumption by country
SOLUTION - BLACK SOLDIER FLY
Hermetia illucens
BSF larvae is a ferocious eater of everything organic
Daily converting organic waste double of its weight into high quality protein and fat
To establish protocols and methods for BSF handling, maintenance and breeding, to develop biochemical functional assays, to optimize BSF mass-production using media development and microbiome research, to initiate development of novelty products using solid knowledge, methodology and deep understanding of the state-of-art Drosophila research. Working with multinational team located in Israel and Russia and in strong cooperation with leading academic centers and CROs.
