Syntects homeAbout SyntectsPioneering sustainable insect farming in the UK
with circular economy principles and zero-waste innovation.

Our Story

Founded in the heart of the UK, Syntects was born from a simple yet powerful vision: to create a truly sustainable food system that benefits both animals and our planet.

We recognized that the traditional pet food and animal feed industries rely heavily on imported products with massive carbon footprints. Meanwhile, tons of perfectly good food waste goes to landfill every day across the UK.

Our solution? Black Soldier Fly larvae farming – a revolutionary approach that transforms food waste into high-quality protein while creating valuable organic fertilizer as a byproduct.

Our Values

The principles that drive everything we do

British-Grown

Every larvae is bred and raised right here in the UK, supporting local economy and ensuring maximum freshness.

Zero Waste
