Finanznachrichten News

Paving the way for a more sustainable protein market in North America

SASKATOON, SK, July 31, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Bühler, the Swiss technology group, and NRGene Canada, a subsidiary of NRGene Technologies Ltd. (TASE: NRGN), an Israeli genomics company, celebrated the successful launch of the North American Insect Center (NAIC) yesterday. The inauguration event, held at NRGene Canada's facility in Saskatoon, marks a significant leap forward in the production and optimization of insect protein in North America.

NRGene & Bühler's North American Insect Center opening

The NAIC is designed as a research and demonstration center where customers can evaluate the performance of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) varieties tailored to their specific by-product streams. The cutting-edge facility is also dedicated to supporting investors in evaluating the economic viability of larger plants before committing to full-scale investment. This innovative approach empowers businesses to make informed decisions, ensuring optimal efficiency and sustainability in protein production.

The launch event featured a tour of the cutting-edge lab, showcasing the advanced capabilities of the NAIC. Attendees included Dr. Gil Ronen, CEO and Co-Founder of NRGene, Andreas Baumann, Head of Market Segment Insect Technology at Bühler, and Jeremy Harrison, Minister of Trade and Export Development. "Saskatchewan is continuing to attract innovative companies who are choosing to invest and grow their business in our province," Harrison noted. "Our reputation as global leaders in agricultural and biotechnology is attracting record capital investment into the province. We're very proud to see the North American Insect Center join a growing list of cutting-edge institutions here in the province. This facility will create new skilled jobs and further position Saskatchewan as a center for alternative protein production research and a leader in global food security."

Equipped with Bühler's advanced Trial Rearing Unit (TRU), the NAIC simulates industrial conditions to optimize the growth of BSF larvae. NRGene's expertise in genomics and phenotyping enables the development of high-performing BSF strains, driving significant advancements in the field. Initial trials have already shown remarkable results, highlighting the synergy between cutting-edge technology and genetic innovation. The center can also customize solutions for different kinds of waste, further enhancing its versatility and sustainability impact.

The NAIC is set to become a hub for industry players, offering customer trials, workshops, training sessions, and seminars to disseminate best practices in insect protein production. This initiative not only addresses the urgent need for sustainable protein sources but also fosters a circular economy by utilizing organic waste effectively. "The NAIC is a testament to the power of combining genetic innovation with technological advancement," said Dr. Gil Ronen, CEO and Co-Founder of NRGene. "The promising results from our trials are just the beginning. This center allows our customers to explore and optimize every aspect of insect protein production, promoting a more efficient and sustainable industry."

Andreas Baumann, Head of Market Segment Insect Technology at Bühler, emphasized the collaborative spirit of the NAIC, stating, "Combining NRGene's genomic data tools and our advanced technologies will allow companies to leverage the deep industry and process knowledge of both companies to produce BSF larvae more efficiently and at lower costs. This will enable insect producers to bring bigger product volumes at consistent quality to the market fostering a broader adoption of this sustainable protein source in the animal feed sector."

"The development of insect proteins as a sustainable protein source presents significant business opportunities," states Johannes Wick, CEO of Bühler's Grains & Food business. "This new facility will open the market up for start-ups and established businesses alike, bringing together the science, tools, technologies, and knowledge needed to further optimize the process to produce protein-rich insect larvae."

"To develop the sustainable protein sources that will meet the needs of the nearly 10 billion people comprising the world's population in 2050, we need solutions that will gain market acceptance and make business sense today. Combining our proven experience and technology for industrial-scale BSF plants with NRGene's leadership in genetics and AI-based genomic tools allows us to accelerate the growth of the insect protein industry," added Ian Roberts, CTO of Bühler. "Having a platform like this in North America, a hub for innovation, will greatly help drive the development of solutions that will make a real difference."

Toward a sustainable future

The establishment of the NAIC signifies a commitment to sustainable practices and innovation in the protein industry. By maximizing the potential of BSF and promoting a circular economy, this center is poised to make a significant impact on global food systems. NRGene Canada and Bühler are committed to enhancing food security and sustainability through innovative genetic solutions, ensuring that every aspect of insect protein production is optimized for efficiency and environmental responsibility.

Located in Saskatoon, a region renowned for its agricultural by-products, the NAIC is ideally positioned to lead the way in transforming waste into protein. This unique combination of technologies promises to set new standards in the industry.
