Main ingredients
Lauric Acid
Lauric acid for immune support — a natural antibiotic protecting animals against pathogens. It effectively supports the function of the liver and pancreas.
AMP Proteins
AMP proteins – a natural immune shield — support the immune system and exhibit antimicrobial activity. In addition, they strengthen the body’s defenses
against infections.
against infections.
Chitin
Natural fiber – chitin — a unique ingredient for a healthy liver, a strong microbiome,
and efficient digestion.

Palatability
Palatability — we provide effective protection against obesity
and hyperlipidemia, conditions
that can consequently lead
to diabetes and other metabolic disorders.

Immune support
Immune support — thanks to uniquely selected components, we strengthen animals’ immunity, protecting them against disease.
Source of protein and fat
Source of highly digestible proteins and fats — our feed components are a concentrated source of highly digestible proteins and fats.
Microbiota
Positive impact on the microbiota — functional nutrients support
the homeostasis of the microbiome,
which is essential for gut health
and the overall welfare of the organism.

Healthy coat and skin
Healthy coat and skin — feed components rich in lauric acid exhibit strong antimicrobial activity and support the skin and coat of animals.
Professor Damian Józefiak
“We create functional feed components that support the health and condition of animals, and in the case
of livestock, enable stable production performance.
For us, this is the result of many years of science-based research. For animals, it is also a reconnection to nature.”

FAQ
Yes, producers of feeds and pet food containing insects – including Hermetia illucens – are subject to the same legal obligations as any other entity operating in the food or feed sector. They are required to ensure the safety of products placed on the market. This means complying with general hygiene and safety standards at each stage of production, in line with Regulation (EC) No 183/2005 on feed hygiene.
Hermetia illucens larvae dominate insect-based feed production. Their uniqueness lies in their rapid growth and rich chemical composition. Products derived from Hermetia are exceptionally well studied – as confirmed by numerous scientific publications across various animal species. Other insects that may be used in animal feed include: the housefly (Musca domestica), yellow mealworm (Tenebrio molitor), lesser mealworm (Alphitobius diaperinus), house cricket (Acheta domesticus), banded cricket (Gryllodes sigillatus), Jamaican field cricket (Gryllus assimilis), and silkworm (Bombyx mori).
Insect-based feed materials are rich in nutrients essential for proper functioning and overall health of animals. What sets them apart from conventional ingredients is their unique fatty acid profile – especially the high content of lauric acid, which naturally supports immunity, along with the presence of antimicrobial peptides. They also contain calcium and phosphorus in highly bioavailable forms.
Yes, insect protein can be used in feeds for fish, poultry, pigs, and companion animals – as permitted under Regulation (EU) 2017/893. The law requires that insects be raised on safe substrates, and that the processed protein meets specific microbiological and chemical standards.
From a biochemical perspective, any protein has the potential to trigger allergies. However, insect protein carries a lower risk than commonly used animal- or plant-based proteins. Because of this lower risk, insect protein is often used as an alternative for animals with allergies or food intolerances.
