• SOME AGRICULTURAL AND AGRI-FOOD LOSSES TO BE VALUED?

    At the heart of its model, MUTATEC has developed a unique expertise in the knowledge, collection and optimal preparation of these resources, in order to make it a substrate perfectly adapted to the needs of black soldier fly larvae (Hermetia illucens).
  • LOOKING FOR INNOVATIVE AND VIRTUOUS AGRICULTURAL PROJECTS FOR YOUR TERRITORY?

    According to the principles of the circular economy, MUTATEC Bioconversion farms are based on a reasoned agricultural model, with technical solutions having low environmental impact and responding perfectly to the challenges of relocation of agriculture and food autonomy.
  • LOOKING FOR SAFE AND SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVE INGREDIENTS FOR ANIMAL NUTRITION?

    Many years of R&D have led to the development of a range of natural ingredients produced in France and Ecuador. Available for sale since 2018, the nutritional and organoleptic characteristics of these ingredients have been widely validated in aquaculture, poultry farming as well as for petfood and ornamental animals.
  • NEED TO SOLICIT BLACK SOLDIER FLY SPECIALISTS?

    Recognized actor in the biology of Hermetia illucens since 2015, MUTATEC has developed a solid expertise in biology, diet, reproductive cycle and contributed to improving scientific knowledge of this small Diptera naturally present on the whole planet.

TESTIMONIALS

  • MUTATEC has developed, in a few years, a insect meal of nutritional quality equivalent to the good fishmeal produced for several decades. By maintaining efforts and the acquisition of knowledge (technological and nutritional), insect protein should be able to replace fish protein in the near future. The scientific, regulatory and safety approaches of MUTATEC teams are essential assets for the development of their industrial model. A sharp, relevant, attentive and very pleasant team.

  • The functional properties of insect meal make it possible not only to have sustainable proteins available, but also to have products capable of stimulating the immune system of animals. What else? Close collaboration between research and business is essential to be able to move faster and further, but is often a difficult goal to achieve. MUTATEC makes the difference on this point: openness, availability, collaboration, exchanges. And a super nice team!
  • The INNOV'ALLIANCE cluster has been present alongside MUTATEC since its creation in 2015. The activities and values of this dynamic company resonate perfectly with those of our Innov'Allies community at the service of naturalness. Today more than yesterday, Mutatec's development projects are opportunities for collaboration that the cluster will not fail to promote and support!
  • Thanks to MUTATEC, we have the opportunity to offer our customers an innovative solution for valuing their by-products while contributing to the protection of the planet's resources. This is at the heart of the ecological transformation, SEDE's main activity purpose.
  • Mutatec is a key partner in our protein supply. The product is qualitative and stable, so the sourcing (feed) carried out in circular economy is remarkable and differentiating. Finally, it is pleasant to work with a human-sized team, which is also attentive to our needs and that keeps its commitments.

  • Luberon Monts de Vaucluse Agglomeration is pleased to have accompanied the company MUTATEC for its implementation project. This company is one of the pioneers in the field of innovation of bioconversion by insects and is fully in line with the economic development strategy of the agglomeration dedicated to naturalness.
  • We had the opportunity to run large-scale feeding trials on seabream with the insect meal manufactured by MUTATEC, through the project NEXTGENPROTEINS, funded by the European Union. The results were very satisfying and validated our hypothesis on application of this product in commercial fish feeds. Due to its nutritional profile and sustainability characteristics, this ingredient is particularly adapted and interested for aquafeed sector.

  • In BioMar, we have a commitment to our planet through sustainability and climate action. To stick to our pledge, the use of low carbon footprint, circular, and restorative raw materials in our diets is essential. Having MUTATEC´s products in our formulations has allowed us to be true to our vows, and get all the nutrition and palatability required by our aquatic clients. This is the next generation of raw materials for animal feeds.
