Nutrition Technologies manufacture and supply sustainable insect proteins, oils and frass to help feed the growing aquaculture, agriculture and animal feed industries around the world. Their core products derive from a nutrient recycling process that uses black soldier fly larvae to recover nutrients from vegetable and grain by-products. They have a unique tropical production system which combines both insects and bacteria to produce high value insect proteins out of low-grade agricultural and industrial food waste. Their main production site and office is in Johor Bahru, Malaysia, with supporting sites in the UK, Vietnam and Singapore. In Johor Bahru they have grown a unique modular black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) production system, which embraces several cost-saving green technologies. By optimising the local climatic conditions they have been able to boost black soldier fly larvae efficiencies, quality and yields beyond industry standards. Nutrition Technologies have developed research partnerships with key institutions throughout the region to develop their products and are conducting several feed trials on key consumer species. Current research partners include; Curtin University (Australia); Crops for the Future (Malaysia); USM (Malaysia); UTM (Malaysia) Nong Lam University (Vietnam); RMIT (Vietnam) and Kasetsart University (Thailand). Their research is also being supported by the Global Connections Fund (Aus government), the International Foundation for Science, and USAID. In September 2017 Nutrition Technologies were the winner and audience favourite of the USAID sponsored Tech4Farmers Asia Challenge 2.0 competition, competing against a field of innovators from across Asia. In July this year, they raised Series A funding led by Openspace Venture and joined by SEEDS Capital, an investment arm of Enterprise SG. Nutrition Technologies are proud to lead the charge in the region to offer sustainable insect protein and oils for the animal feed industry and the pet food sector.
