LOCAL

LOCAL

We give preference to Belgian suppliers, both for the mealworm feed and for the equipment. If this is not possible for certain equipment, we turn to French or Dutch suppliers.

ENVIRONMENT

ENVIRONMENT

This approach to insect breeding was born to reduce the ecological impact compared to traditional animal proteins production. Our breeding drastically decreases the necessary resources compared to other traditional breeding but also valorizes the waste. Nothing is thrown away at Entomobio.

We are in a new business sector, we must discover, learn and master each stage of our production in order to meet the quality and hygiene requirements of our customers.

In symbiosis with the environment, we work to minimize our impact (waste recovery, limitation of energy consumption, ...) on society and the planet in order to preserve a peaceful future for next generations.

Insects to save the planet

Currently, the main source of protein in the modern diet comes from livestock, such as cattle, poultry and pigs. This animal agriculture is responsible for the largest extraction of water on Earth but also for the largest loss of water in the environment, occupies large areas of land, and is one of the largest producers of atmospheric methane, which is a powerful greenhouse gas.

There are proteins of plant origin that have certain nutritional interests (mainly soy), but another type of protein may be used in the coming decades to limit damage to the environment: proteins from insects.
