Together for a low-footprint food chain
Welcome to Protix, the global leader in high-quality, low-impact insect solutions for feed and farming. Our insect, the tiny black soldier fly, can make a big difference in lowering the environmental footprint of modern food production. Together with our customers, we're creating innovative insect-based solutions that benefit people and the planet.
Our mission
By 2050, the world will need to feed around 10 billion people in a sustainable way, without deforestation, overfishing, or food waste. Therefore, our mission is to bring the food system back into balance with nature, using insect ingredients and solutions.
Changing the food system naturally
Insect solutions
A natural fix
Inspired by nature, insects offer a powerful solution. Many animals naturally eat insects, because they are packed with protein and nutrients, making them an ideal ingredient for animal feed. Additionally, insects occur naturally in soil, where they benefit soil health and plant growth.
In our commercial production, we have chosen to work with the black soldier fly, which can eat almost any low-grade food waste and turns it efficiently into high-quality feed for both animals and plants.
Our work restores insects to their rightful place in the food system, as the natural link between waste and nutrition for animals and plants. By pairing natural processes with cutting-edge technology, we provide sustainable nutrition that helps feed the world's growing population.

Benefits for health and nature
Our insect solutions are used in a wide range of feed and farming applications worldwide. No matter the sector or application, they provide a healthy, sustainable and natural food source. By harnessing the power of insects, we can transform the food system for the better.
Healthy feed and food
Insect-based feed for animals and plants is nutritious and healthy. Many young animals in nature rely on insects as a rich source of protein and fat, providing essential energy and nutrients.
Natural food chain
In nature, insects are a source of food for many animals and humans. Incorporating them into our food system reestablishes their vital role as a natural link between waste and nutrition, closing the natural cycle of life.
