Circular feed system using insect and plant proteins to enhance gut health, immunity, and welfare while reducing antibiotic use and environmental impact.
About
STAX is a pioneering agritech company dedicated to transforming animal nutrition through circular, sustainable, and scalable solutions. Our brand is built upon innovation, integrity, and measurable impact. By integrating insect farming, vertical agriculture, and proprietary feed formulation, we create high-performance animal feeds that enhance health and welfare while protecting the planet. We are driven by the belief that food systems should regenerate rather than deplete, and we work in partnership with farmers, food producers, and retailers to build resilient supply chains. STAX stands for science-backed solutions that deliver superior animal health, environmental benefits, and commercial viability for a more sustainable future.
Key Benefits
STAX delivers multiple benefits: improved animal health and welfare through enhanced gut health and immunity; reduced antibiotic use supporting antimicrobial resistance goals; a sustainable protein source that lowers feed-related emissions by up to 80%; circular waste utilisation reducing disposal costs for food processors; and a scalable, modular system enabling local production and resilient supply chains. This integrated approach supports Tesco’s net zero targets while ensuring healthier, more productive animals and greater environmental stewardship across their supply base.
Applications
STAX targets livestock and pet food producers seeking sustainable, high-performance feed solutions. Our primary markets include poultry farms aiming to reduce antibiotic use, pet food manufacturers seeking hypoallergenic and environmentally friendly protein alternatives, aquaculture operations requiring efficient, traceable protein inputs, and gamebird producers focused on animal welfare and feed efficiency. Additionally, we serve food and beverage processors generating waste streams suitable for insect rearing, enabling them to reduce disposal costs while contributing to circular economy goals.
