[ USDA organic certification ]
Based on National Organic Program, USDA provides its criteria as follows:
– More than 95% comes from organic raw materials.
– Foods and other agricultural products are produced in permitted methodologies.
– Introduce agricultural methods using cultures, organisms, and apparatus which enables promoting resource circulation, and maintaining an ecosystem balance and biodiversity.
– The use of chemically synthesized fertilizers, radiation, and genetic engineering is prohibited.


[ Fermenstation Co., Ltd. ]
Fermenstation is providing a solution to upcycle and circulate unused biomass using its proprietary fermentation technology. Our solutions range from manufacturing and sales of cosmetic raw materials to co-development of original materials. Utilization of unused biomass such as food waste, non-standard agricultural products and abandoned farmland remains to be solved. However, to overcome this issue, a solution capable of upcycling a wide range of unused biomass to a variety of appropriate products is expected. Here, we provide a solution based on our fermentation technology platform that allows us to handle diverse unused biomass and turn them into value-added products.
