About Us
Our Mission
To feed the world sustainably through the power of insects and drive the world’s transition to sustainable food and agriculture
Our Vision
To revolutionize the way protein is produced and supplied to meet the ever-increasing global protein demand without overwhelming the planet
Feeding The Future Sustainably
Biovae adopts a sustainable and circular business model based strongly on the circular economy concept. A sustainable business model is future ready, commercially successful and the business is part of a sustainable society which uses resources that it can utilize for the long term and gives back to the earth.
The current world population is 7.8 billion people according to the most recent United Nations estimates and the world population is expected to reach 9.8 billion people in the year 2050. This means that by 2050, we will need to feed two billion more people but how are we going to achieve that without overwhelming the planet? How can Biovae contribute and help to address this global crisis?

Harnessing The Power of Insects
The answer is by implementing a circular business model which is the solution for not only improving resource management and decreasing waste production but also reducing costs and producing a sustainable product. Biovae strives for employing fewer materials and resources to produce our products, extending the life of current products in the market specifically biologically decomposable products through black soldier fly biowaste processing and closing the loop of products life by preventing them from entering the landfill through black soldier fly farming technology. Ultimately, the Cradle to Grave concept is replaced completely by the Cradle to Cradle concept through the bioconversion of organic wastes by the black soldier fly larvae. The Cradle to Cradle concept states that everything is a resource for something else. In nature, the “waste” of one system becomes food for another system. Everything can be designed to be disassembled and safely returned to the soil as biological nutrients. Therefore, Biovae is fully supportive of a circular economy and constantly innovates to harness the power of waste to feed and care for the world.
Global Food Wastage
Transforming Waste to Food
At Biovae, our core purpose is to produce and supply sustainable, all-natural, high quality insect proteins and organic fertilizers by utilizing the latest biotechnology through the bioconversion of organic wastes by black soldier fly larvae to meet the ever-increasing protein demand for the animal feed, pet food and aquaculture industries as well as the increasing demand of organic fertilizers for the agriculture industry both domestically and internationally.
We believe that the sustainable and efficient black soldier fly biowaste processing technology has the potential to revolutionize the way protein is produced and provide a solution to feed the increasing human population in the future without overwhelming the planet.
Insects for Food and Feed
Insects for Food and Feed
Insects have a high food conversion rate, e.g. crickets need six times less feed than cattle, four times less than sheep, and twice less than pigs and broiler chickens to produce the same amount of protein. Besides, they emit less greenhouse gases and ammonia than conventional livestock. Insects can be grown on organic waste. Therefore, insects are a potential source for conventional production of protein, either for direct human consumption, or indirectly in recomposed foods (with extracted protein from insects); and as a protein source into feedstock mixtures.
