Why Global Bugs?
There are several benefits to working with Global Bugs; we offer the finest, freshest cricket powder for your products in four application categories; food, beverages, dietary supplement, and pet food.
Our cricket powder main key selling point
is that we reach a consistently high product quality due to our in-house farming and processing with a focus on strict adherence to food- safety and security regulations set by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA).
By doing this we are minimizing our risk aspects to the lowest possible level for contamination, diseases, and other health issues in the cricket colony.
We are focusing on three main risk aspects and manage them separately
Avoiding risks by never using eggs from external sources without a lab test to proof they are free from diseases and other health issues prior placing them in the incubation room.
Avoiding risks by never using cricket shelters from external sources without a lab test to proof they are free from 2-Phenylphenol prior placing them in the EntoBox.
2-Phenylphenol is a pesticide heavily used in Thailand and can contaminate the cricket powder with more than 36 times above the allowed threshold in EU, by using contaminated cricket shelters.
Preventing risks by training programs for our employees with purpose to not bring in a disease or other health issues to the farm and process factory from the outside environment. This is also prevented by locks consisting of double doors at all entrances, and an over pressure of the air inside the process factory.
Preventing risks by constructing several 1,400 sqm EntoFarms separated from each other rather than one large will reduce the loss in case a disease or other health issues spreads out in the farm.
Sharing risks by constructing several EntoFarms using our “farm in a box-model” rather than constructing one large farm.
