Overview

In January 2025, Rebioca embarked on a strategic networking visit to Denmark, aiming to root its regenerative innovations more deeply into the European ecosystem. At the heart of the journey was Rebsf, an ambitious project turning organic waste into high-value, low-carbon materials through the magic of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) bioconversion.

By deploying modular BSF container systems, Rebioca creates high-protein insect-based feed, organic fertilizers, and sustainable oils — all while using far less land and water than traditional systems. With blockchain and IoT woven into their infrastructure, they ensure transparency, traceability, and operational efficiency.

This visit was not merely transactional — it was a mutual exchange of vision and potential. Through engagements with Denmark’s vibrant sustainability ecosystem, Rebioca strengthened the foundation for international collaboration, technology validation, and cross-border regeneration.
