Darling Incredients Inc.已收购了Intrexon Corp.拥有的Enviroflight的50％合资兴趣，从而将其在EnviroFlight的所有权增加到100％。

EnviroFlight is a leading developer of proprietary technologies which enable the rearing of non-pathogenic black soldier fly (BSF) larvae in a scalable manner.

这种创新和负责任的方法在全球动物饲料行业中具有巨大的潜力，因为它将提供一种环保，无毒素，可持续的高价值营养素来源。

Enviroflight opened the first commercial BSF facility in Maysville, Kentucky in late 2018. Phase 1 of this production facility currently has the capacity to produce 900 tons of dried BSF larvae on an annual basis.

"Expanding our ownership of EnviroFlight empowers us to accelerate our ability to create higher value, sustainable specialty proteins for the agriculture and companion animal feed industries," says Randall C. Stuewe, chairman and chief executive officer of Darling Ingredients. "Our purpose is to repurpose, and growing insects for specialty feed ingredients yields 10 times the usable protein per acre compared to producing algae and is at least 50 times the protein per acre compared to soy," Stuewe added. "We welcome the 62 EnviroFlight team members to the Darling Ingredients family."

"EnviroFlight has focused on driving necessary change in the global food supply chain to meet the demands of a growing population, and we look forward to working more closely with Darling Ingredients to realize the considerable promise of insect bioconversion to offer solutions that meet this goal," says Dr. Liz Koutsos, President of EnviroFlight.

与传统蛋白质来源相比，Enviroflight的基于昆虫的方法可恢复具有显着改善蛋白质产量潜力的丰富食品盈余，因为它们熟练地将有机材料转化为有价值的蛋白质，油和毛豆。Enviroflight利用BSF幼虫的可扩展方法为动物饲料和宠物食品行业的高质量营养素打开了大门。

实际上，所有动物在其本地环境中以某种身份食用昆虫，尤其是在鱼类和家禽市场中，BSF幼虫可能比大豆餐和其他植物性蛋白质更能代表其典型的饮食。此外，对鱼粉和鱼油的需求预计将超过这些产品在数十亿美元的水产养殖行业中的供应，而BSF幼虫粉已被证明是鱼粉的绝佳选择。

Enviroflight继续与监管机构合作，以获得批准，以将这些成分喂入美国的食用动物和宠物。Enviroflight的综合研究计划证明了BSF衍生成分在家禽饮食（肉鸡和母鸡），猪和伴侣动物中的安全性，适用性和价值。从环保过程中得出的高度消化营养物质的组合使BSF幼虫成为帮助喂养动物的自然选择。

自2014年底以来，Enviroflight与Darling成分合作，完善其针对BSF幼虫的可扩展生产过程。达令（Darling）在2016年获得了EnviroFlight 50％的所有权权益。

拥有超过135年的经验,亲爱的foremost reclaimer and processor of inexpensive bio-sustainable feedstocks, repurposing typically inedible ingredients into usable specialty feed and food solutions.

Darling's operational expertise in this area combined with EnviroFlight's innovative approach employing BSF larvae will be leveraged to standardize processes for creating and optimizing BSFL-based feed.
