Micronutris – for pioneers
Micronutris is raising two insect species: the mealworm (Tenebrio molitor) and the banded cricket (Gryllode sigillatus). The insects are born and raised in their insect farm close to Toulouse. Micronutris’ biologists developed methods which enable the insects’ optimal development under very strict hygiene regulations and by a 100% plant-based and organic feeding.
The insects are processed and packed in a laboratory specially designed for this reason. Micronutris implemented an HACCP plan in order to meet the legal requirements. The processing and packaging methods comply with the revised regulations of the CE N°2073/2005. Periodic analyses of the insects are conducted by independent and internationally approved laboratories. In addition, Micronutris carries out voluntary analyses to inspect the insects for allergy triggers and infections.
