About

AdalbaPro is a functional, nutritious, and sustainable ingredient line developed by Protifarm who is one of the world’s leading producers of edible insects. Insects are by far the most efficient source of protein and vertical farming methods used for cultivation help minimise environmental impact, reducing carbon footprint. This range of unique and minimally processed ingredients offers solutions for meat replacement and protein fortification to add value and effectiveness to all kinds of formulations. Some examples of products in the range include: AdalbaPro Textured Insect Protein (TIP) is an innovative food ingredient that is similar to tofu. TIP is rich in digestible protein and iron and cooks just like meat making it a great replacer or extender for meat or meat alternative products.

AdalbaPro IPC offers exceptional nutrition with a complete amino acid profile, highly digestible proteins, and a rich collection of essential vitamins and minerals.
