Arbiom is pioneering the future of food with technology that converts wood into an alternative protein source for animals and humans
The Global Challenge
of Feeding the World
The growing global population and changing socio-demographics will place increased pressure on the world’s limited resources to feed the world by 2050. The increased demand for protein is particularly concerning, with animal protein demand projected to double by 2050, according the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO).
Population Growth
By 2050, between 9-11 billion people will be living on the planet, an increase of 2 to 3 billion people.
Rise of the Middle Class
Growth in the middle class will increase demand for meat and fish.
Urbanization
By 2050, 65% of world’s population will live in urban areas, allowing for easier access to animal protein.
ARBIOM is pioneering the NEXT evolution in our food chain, with technology that reinvents the use of wood.
