Bengaluru-based #biotechnology startup Loopworm is processing a stunning 50 tonnes of food waste every day to create a high-quality feed for Black Soldier Fly (BSF) worms. The protein extracted from the insects is used as a raw material in animal feeds and pet foods.

This #Bengaluru-based biotechnology startup has developed a flagship vertical and indoor-based smart insect breeding, production, and processing technology to produce sustainable Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae-based proteins and fats.

The food waste sourced from processing industries or manufacturers is first converted into high-quality feedstock (via thermal, chemical and biological pre-treatment), and fed to these insects.

The accumulated healthy protein and fat are then extracted from these insects and used in different products.

To date, #Loopworm has conceptualised B2B products, including protein concentrate used as a raw material in animal feeds and pet foods, protein powder that serves as a natural diet for animals, fish, turtles, and crustaceans, and for use in poultry, farmed fish, and farmed pig diets for superior growth and meat quality), insect oil (used in animal feed and as a raw material in cosmetic products), and insect frass (plant immunity-enhancing soil additive).

Loopworm has secured grants worth Rs 1 crore in total from the Union and #Karnataka governments to support its pilot project. It has also received support from Social Alpha (a venture development platform for science and technology startups).

The startup is in talks with seven pet food and five animal feed manufacturers to supply their products and is undergoing commercial trials.
