Why Insects?
Insects are our chance for a more
sustainable diet for climate protection.
With proteins and fats from insects, dogs, cats and all masters & mistresses can effectively reduce their carbon footprint.
Insects may not be as cute as their bigger, furry friends from the farm – but unlike conventional livestock, Henart insects are bred without harmful substances such as antibiotics or growth hormones.
They come from insect farms that are 100% livestock-free! There are also no hidden animal fats or derivatives in the feed.
HenArt Pro-Life Science® Natural, Grain-Free and Hypoallergenic Green Pet Food
HenArt® Company specializes in the development and production (Germany) of sustainable, environmentally friendly and “Pawprint reducing” Mealworm Insect proteins for dogs and cats.
Benefits “HenArt® Mealworm Insect”
Scientific research by the Dutch University of Maastricht in 2021 shows that the HenArt® Mealworm Protein has the same nutritional performance as the “Golden Standard” Milk Protein in terms of:
- Digestion
- Absorption
- The ability to stimulate muscle production
HenArt® Mealworm has higher nutritional values than other insects:
- More protein
- The fat composition of the mealworm is better suited to the nutritional needs of cats and dogs.
- Mealworm has a high oleic and linoleic acid content and a low saturated acid content.
- Mealworm has low biogenic amines (histamine less than 6 ppm) and low TVN content.
HenArt® Mealworm acceptance is higher than other insects.
HenArt® Mealworm has a neutral odor.
Research shows that consumers prefer the Mealworm over others.
HenArt Pro Life Science® Mealworm Insect Dog & Cat Food features our “HenArt Eggshell Membrane®” (HEM®).

HenArt offers a complete range of high-quality food for Dogs AND Cats with the Mealworm Insect as the only animal protein.
Insects are better for climate protection
Up to 25 times less greenhouse gas emissions are produced when breeding and keeping insects, in contrast to conventional livestock farming.
Insects consume less space
44 times more space is needed for 5kg of protein from cattle – 23m2 for insects, 1,000m2 for cattle. Our mealworms are kept in modern farms with plenty of upward space.
Insects are fed with
food remains
Insects enable zero-waste feeding and eat, among other things, flour residues from large production plants, while conventional livestock farming, for example, involves the extra cultivation of soy plants that are harmful to the environment and the rainforest.
Food waste is a big problem. The insects in Henart Futter feed exclusively on surplus fruit and vegetables from local sources – an insect superfood that would otherwise be thrown away. And all the by-products of raising and processing the insects are used as raw materials by other industries – meaning Henart insects waste even less.
Insect breeding saves a lot of water
Land maintenance and animal feeding require more than 500,000 litres of water per 5kg of protein for cattle, and more than 150,000 litres for poultry.
Insects only need about 25,000 litres, which is up to 20 times more economical.
How do we do that?
Sustainable insect protein from mealworms. Your contribution to climate protection with feed made from mealworms instead of conventional livestock farming per 1kg of protein:
- 25 times less greenhouse gas emissions.
- 20 times less water consumption
- 44 times less space consumption
