WELS, Austria – May 6, 2026 – Interzoo in Nuremberg, which takes place every two years, is one of the world’s leading trade fairs for the global pet industry. This year, it will be held from May 12 to 15. Ahead of the trade fair, the Interzoo Sustainability Conference on sustainability in the pet industry will take place on May 11.

REPLOID Group AG (“REPLOID”) will participate in Interzoo in several ways:

May 11: Interzoo Sustainability Conference – Table Discussion

Ronald Mitterndorfer, Director RFU Sales at REPLOID, and Richard Poulsen will present the 3D model of a REPLOID ReFarmUnit during a roundtable session. The ReFarmUnits are decentralized, modular, and highly automated insect-rearing plants. The larvae serve as a replacement for, or supplement to, conventional animal feed. The larvae’s byproducts are also utilized: they form the basis for REPLOID’s organic fertilizer.

May 14: Presentation “From Food Side Streams to Functional Pet Nutrition”
Location: Sourcing Stage in Hall 12, booth number 12.0-353

Paul van der Raad, Director of Global Petfood at REPLOID, will present how modern insect farming can connect functional pet nutrition, the circular economy, and resilient local supply chains around the world. This creates value for food companies, pet food producers, farmers, retailers, pet owners, and ultimately for pets themselves.

HEROSAN healthcare is the main sponsor of the Interzoo Sustainability Conference and an exhibitor at Interzoo
Location: Hall 2, booth 2-522

Sustainability is no longer a differentiator in the pet industry; it is becoming a fundamental requirement. Guided by this conviction, REPLOID’s strategic investment HEROSAN healthcare is supporting the Interzoo Sustainability Conference as its main sponsor.

As animal health requirements continue to change significantly, HEROSAN healthcare will also be represented at Interzoo with its own booth. Tolerability, functionality, and sustainable raw materials are increasingly moving into focus. This is precisely where HEROSAN healthcare comes in:

• functional nutrition with clear health benefits
• innovative protein sources such as insects and fungi
• solutions for sensitive animals and increasing intolerances
• products that can be meaningfully integrated into modern distribution concepts

About REPLOID Group AG

REPLOID offers an innovative system for the industrial utilization of regional organic residues from the food industry.

The company builds and services modular and scalable insect-rearing plants for its customers – the REPLOID ReFarmUnits. In these plants, young black soldier fly larvae supplied by the company receive a site-specific feed mix. This mix is developed on the basis of REPLOID’s own research and development using residual materials from the regional food value chain. After rearing, customers either use the larvae and/or their by-products themselves, or REPLOID takes them back for centralized marketing or further processing.

REPLOID sells the reared larvae either directly or, after further processing into proteins and fats, for example, to customers in the animal feed industry. From the by-products of insect rearing (insect frass), the company produces premium organic fertilizer.

With decentralized upcycling on an industrial scale, REPLOID provides an economically attractive solution within the circular economy. Food residues and unused food are utilized efficiently, helping to conserve key resources over the long term.

REPLOID Group AG was founded in 2020 and is headquartered in Wels, Austria. The company has a global focus and has been listed since July 2025 on the Vienna Stock Exchange’s direct market plus segment (ticker symbol: HRX5). The Group employs more than 135 people.
