Royal Dutch Kusters Engineering partners with Livin Farms to Revolutionize Sustainable Insect Farming

 

Venlo, 22nd of May 2023 – Royal Dutch Kusters Engineering, a global player in innovative separation solutions, is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with Livin Farms, an esteemed Austrian company specializing in sustainable insect farming. This collaboration aims to revolutionize the insect-based protein industry by implementing high-tech solutions.


Livin Farms is at the forefront of developing sustainable solutions for animal feed, with a particular focus on black soldier flies. These remarkable insects offer numerous benefits, including their high protein content, efficient conversion of organic waste, and low environmental impact. By harnessing their potential, Livin Farms is transforming the way we address food security and sustainable agriculture.


Royal Dutch Kusters Engineering recently conducted a successful test at its factory in Venlo, where they showcased their Rotoshifter technology to Livin Farms. The Rotoshifter sets a new standard in larvae separation with its innovative technology, merging two established separation methods into a single solution. This cutting-edge system effectively separates larvae from frass, ensuring excellent purity levels. Extensive testing has demonstrated that the Rotoshifter achieves an impressive purity level of up to 97.5% for clean Black Soldier Fly Larvae. With its exceptional performance, this technology revolutionizes the insect farming industry, enabling producers to deliver high-quality larvae for various applications, including animal feed and sustainable agriculture.


The partnership between Royal Dutch Kusters Engineering and Livin Farms marks a significant milestone in advancing sustainable insect farming practices. By integrating the Rotoshifter technology into Livin Farms' operations, they will enhance their ability to scale production, increase efficiency, and maintain the highest quality standards. This collaboration will empower Livin Farms to meet the growing demand for sustainable animal feed solutions while reducing reliance on traditional protein sources.

"We are thrilled to partner with Livin Farms," mentioned Jeroen Kusters, Director of Sales at Royal Dutch Kusters Engineering. "Their dedication to sustainable insect farming aligns perfectly with our mission to develop state-of-the-art technologies to contribute to a more sustainable and efficient food system. Together, we will drive positive change and create a more sustainable future."

About the Livin Farms Technology


Livin Farms Hive PRO Factory is a modular, plug-and-play insect farming factory that can turn industrial amounts of organic waste by-products into insect proteins. Those can in turn be processed and sold as animal feed. “We are using insects´ key function in the ecosystem to make our food system healthy again at scale: Turning waste into precious food!” (Katharina Unger, CEO). Setting up an insect farming operation is a lengthy and expensive procedure that requires a lot of time and R&D. With our technology, industry customers make a shortcut. Our Hive PRO factories are ready-to-go industrial insect farming modules. They serve as key enabling technologies for the food, feed, and recycling industries to turn their low-value resources into high-quality ingredients for commercialization.”
