- COMPANY BACKGROUND
Kosmode Health Singapore Pte Ltd (KHS) is on a mission to revolutionise health; harnessing food processing wastes, which would otherwise be dumped into landfills, to address challenges of high cost of quality ingredients & functional food in the Agrifood industry, and lack of reproducibility of biomaterials in the Biomedical industry.
Kosmode Health impacts two dynamic business verticals:
• Agrifood Vertical: We serve the Agri-food Industry by utilizing our core plant extraction expertise to reclaim proteins and fiber from Food Processing Wastes or Spent Grains. Our commitment to innovation is evident in the creation of a range of protein and fiber functional food prototypes, including the world’s only functional food clinically validated to have ‘0’ Glycemic Response - W0W® Noodles.

• Biomedical, 3D Cell Culture segment: Protein isolates, repurposed from food processing wastes, are formulated into Plant Protein Composite (PPC®) bio-ink, the primary component for printing of 3D plant protein scaffolds (e.g. PPC® scaffold) that can be customised to meet growth requirement of diverse range of cells and tissues.
With a solid foundation laid, Kosmode Health is ready for the next phase of production and business scale-up. We are actively seeking talented individuals who thrive on solving industry challenges, possess resourcefulness, excel at multitasking, and demonstrate the resilience and perseverance needed to drive success.
