The role of Cricking

Pioneering the protein transition

What's up?

The Protein Transition refers to a strategic shift towards diversifying and promoting sustainable sources of protein in the food system, with a focus on reducing reliance on traditional animal-based proteins and encouraging the consumption of alternative protein sources.

This shift addresses pressing environmental concerns such as excessive land and water use, as well as CO2 emissions associated with conventional protein production methods.

The Protein Transition is all about switching things up in our diets by adding more eco-friendly protein sources. Instead of just sticking to meat and plants alternatives, it's time to look at other options like insects!

This change helps tackle big environmental issues like too much land and water use, and high CO2 emissions that come from traditional meat and plant-protein production.

Making a difference

We're on a mission to reshape the way people nourish themselves, soon offering a diverse range of delicious and nutrient-packed products derived from cricket protein.

Through our innovative use of cricketscrickets, we want to redefine the way people approach nutrition, embracing the unparalleled benefits of insect protein for both personal wellness and environmental preservation.

Why not crickets?

Higher nutrition ⬆
Lower environmental impact ⬇Low in environmental impact ⬇

It's not just about what's on the plate โ€“ it's about the impact beyond..

Nutritional profile:

Crickets are packed with good stuff!

A protein content of 75% and an impressive array of essential nutrients like healthy fats, iron, calcium, vitamin B-12, omega-3, and potassium, turn crickets into a leap towards sustainability that's as nutritious as it is eco-conscious.

More potassium than bananas
More iron than spinach
More calcium than milk
More omega-3 than salmon
More vitamin B-12 than beef
and even more!
Edible & protein share

Crickets are so good that most of their mass is edible.
And guess what? Most of that edible mass is protein. Not bad, huh?

    Crickets
  • 80% edible
  • 75% protein
    Beef
  • 40% edible
  • 25% protein
    Pork
  • 55% edible
  • 26% protein
    Chicken

Water footprint

Growing crickets take only a fraction of the amount of fresh water required by other protein sources.

Fresh water needed to produce 1 kg of cricket protein:

0,05 %
compared to beef
0,5 %
compared to soybeans

Carbon footprint

Crickets, with their tiny carbon footprint, prove that small can be mighty in the fight against climate change!

CO2 emissions released to produce 1 kg of cricket protein:

0,1 %
compared to cattle
70 %
compared to plant alternatives

Land use

Cricket farms take up so little ground space, you'll hardly notice they're there โ€“ but the planet sure does!

Unlike traditional livestock, cricket farming requires significantly less land, reducing habitat destruction and deforestation.

Ground space needed to produce 1 kg of cricket protein:

7,5 %
compared to cattle
15 %
compared to plant alternatives

Did you know that livestock production accounts for 70 percent of all agricultural land use?
