Insect producer Volare has announced plans to build a facility capable of producing 5,000 tonnes of protein and lips a year – for use in aquafeeds and petfoods – in Järvenpää, Finland.

“We produce high-quality protein and lipids from the side streams of food production, and this has an extremely positive impact on the environment. With the new facility, we will be able to respond to the growing demand of climate-friendly protein in Europe,” said Volare’s CEO, Tuure Parviainen, in a press release.
