Molecular farming for alternative proteins
Kyomei is a biotechnology business serving the food ingredients and alternative protein industries. It uses molecular farming to turn crop leaves into plant-based biofactories, producing and extracting functional and speciality ingredients that are difficult to source naturally, animal-derived or increasingly unsustainable. Its work supports clean-label, better-for-you food products and aims to make ingredient supply more scalable, sustainable and cost-effective. The company develops crop-based production platforms, applies plant science, photosynthesis and molecular biology, and collaborates with food and farming partners to create additional value from agricultural biomass while improving existing supply chains.
