Business Overview

The Nutrition Sciences business offers specialised, nature-inspired and science-backed ingredients and formulations for human and animal nutrition. FOSSENCE® and GOSSENCE® are our flagship products; they are prebiotic dietary fibres that stimulate gut microbiome growth, thus enhancing digestive and immune health. Sweet-tasting with a low glycaemic response, FOSSENCE® is an ideal ingredient for sugar replacement/reduction. Our formulations are used by F&B (food & beverages), animal nutrition and pharma companies for flavouring, fortification and essential nutrients applications.

We use patented in-house technology to manufacture prebiotics. Our multi-disciplinary team of scientists works on microbiome science (the core science platform) and fermentation technology (the manufacturing platform). We hold numerous publication & patents and actively spread knowledge of this science.

Our products are manufactured at the state-of-the-art greenfield facility in Mambattu, Nellore. It is FSSC22000-certified (can produce ingredients for infant nutrition) and IGBC gold-rated for its responsible manufacturing practices.
