Support: Facility handbook, SOP library, operator training & 365-day expert support
Scalable path: Pilot (5 MT/day) to 100MT/day commercial scale facilities
Throughput Options
Pilot line: 5 MT input per day
Commercial lines: 20, 35, or 50 MT input per day
Scale: Add lines in parallel to expand capacity
Typical outputs per commercial line
Wet larvae: 3,000 to 8,000 kg per day
Frass: 5,000 to 13,000 kg per day
By design: Consistent, automated rearing and harvest with minimal operator touch time
Footprint and layout
Reference layout: W40 m x L80 m x H8 m per 20–50 MT line
Zoning: Feedstock prep, nursery, grow, harvest, and post-harvest separated for biosecurity and clean flows
Flexible siting: Greenfield new build or retrofit into existing sheds
