Loopworm

Promoting sustainable agricultural practices through insect protein production

Problem

A limited food supply is one of the major concerns that humanity has to face. In an unpredictable world, we are already experiencing food shortages in many parts of the world. Over 5.5 billion people depend on fish, poultry, and dairy to meet their protein needs. In less than three decades, the demand is expected to rise by 70%. To meet these needs, it is essential to ensure better nutrition and growth in livestock and fish grown in fish farms. This can be achieved by feeding Loop-Meal to livestock and fish.

Social Impact

  • Loopworm has developed innovative solutions to convert organic waste into products that guarantee food security.
  • LoopFrass, one of our most innovative products, is a natural soil amendment (consisting of food fibres, insect skins, and droppings). LoopFrass has helped countless farmers achieve a better root-to-shoot ratio.
  • Loopworm has changed the way livestock are fed, and food is grown.

Solution

Loop-Meal by Loopworm is a partially defatted insect protein concentrate rich in bioactive peptides. The bioactive peptides are proven to promote anti-microbial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidative properties. Loop-Meal is an ideal addition to poultry and fish food formulations as a functional ingredient. Loop-Oil is another product we offer that makes for an excellent addition to pet food. This product is derived after purifying the crude oil extracted in the process of Loop-Meal production. Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, Loop-Oil caters to the fat source needed for animals.
