Proteins of excellent quality
Insects are masters at converting low value brans into valuable proteins
The Tenebrio Molitor larvae presents a high-quality amino acid profile (EAAI = 1.6)
Automated production
To meet the highest quality standards and market demands, we rely on AI-based automation technologies in a full industrial scale vertical-production facility.
Sustainability is what we do
Through innovation and circular economy, Tebrito addresses many of the UN sustainable development goals.
Insects are truly climate-smart
Compared to other sources, insects present the smallest footprint and least demands when considering water, energy, land and GHG equivalents for the production of 1kg edible proteins.

Awards & Prizes
We are proud and honoured to be awarded the following nominations and prizes
Our food production system is broken. It emits more greenhouse gases than the whole transportation sector combined. To make things worse, the demand for proteins is expected to increase 60 % to 2050 due to a growing population with ever increasing prosperity.
So, what should we eat?
The Protein Gap
Image a chicken that grows faster on cheaper feed, with shorter life cycle span. This chicken loves crowded places and can be effectively reared in a industrial scale.
This is what we do.
It's all about insects. Founded 2016.
SUMMARY
Why insects?
Insect breeding for human consumption is climate-smart, healthy and effective compared to conventional farming. It’s proven that people will find it easier to accept a insect protein as a neutral food ingredient, instead of whole insects. Our award winning 85< % protein ingredient have a huge potential in different food applications. The oil extracted have the potential to replace palm oil.
What we do
Our two fields of business
Tebrito has two fields of operations. Our aim is to be key actor in creating automated industrial production of insects for human consumption in Sweden and elsewhere. We have also developed a unique process of protein extraction from mealworms, that have been proven well suited for different food applications. The powder has the same protein quality as beef, is taste neutral and has many exciting and unique features.

Awards & Prizes
We are proud and honoured to be awarded the following nominations and prizes
SKAPA innovation prize 2017 - Länsvinnare Dalarna
"Hållbara och klimatsmarta produkter kommer vara ett krav framöver, särskilt när det kommer till livsmedelsproduktion för en ökande befolkning. Årets Skapapristagare har utvecklat en produkt med mycket låg miljöbelastning men med ett mycket högt näringsvärde.
Forskningen bakom produkten har gett egenskaper som inte tidigare uppnåtts och potentialen är enorm.
Med deras raffinerade produkt och smarta konceptpaketering, så kommer alla vilja äta maskar till frukost, lunch och middag!"
Åforsk Entrepreneur Scholarship 2017
"Juryns nominering lyder: egenskaperna hos Tebritos produkt i termer av proteinhalt, smak och hållbarhet är mycket lovande. Produkten svarar väl mot de globala samhällsutmaningarna inom hållbar livsmedelsförsörjning och mot Sveriges mål att öka graden av självförsörjning av livsmedelsproduktion. Miljöbelastningen är mycket låg. Marknaden är i hög grad internationell. Övriga applikationsområden är kosttillskott för idrottare, näringspreparat för åldringsvården eller svältdrabbade områden, samt tillsatser i djurfoder."
Vinnova Klimatsmart protein 2016
"Ert produkt fick vid smakprovningseventet högsta betyg av smakpanelen, dessutom har detta
projekt stor potential att få fram attraktiva produkter på marknaden efter detta följdprojekt och
kan på så sätt bidra till utlysningens mål: att få fler klimatsmarta proteinkällor på marknaden."
Finalists Änglamarkspriset 2017
Finalists Änglamarkspriset. Änglamarkspriset syftar till att ge välförtjänt uppmärksamhet och uppmuntran till personer som gör förtjänstfulla insatser för miljön.
