Beekenkamp Verpakkingen has been developing insect breeding trays for the production of animal protein. The growing world population demands more and more animal protein. Insects are an attractive additional source in addition to conventional livestock farming. Insects also convert their food into protein ten times more efficiently than cattle. 10 kg feed provides only 1 kg of beef, but insects convert 10 kg into up to 9 kg of insect meat. Insects produce less fertilizer, and they also emit less CO2 and other greenhouse gases. They also use up to 1000x less water and take up less space.

Beekenkamp Verpakkingen therefore specializes in the production of sustainable protein production, in addition to the regular efficient horticultural systems and means of transport. We do this by working together with insect breeders to create efficient systems for the cultivation of insects such as mealworms, buffalo worms and BSF (black soldier fly).
