Microbial Protein Fish Feed: Circular Aquafeed Pellets from Singapore
Table of Contents
Fermented Fish Feed Made from Recovered Food
Life Lab Resources produces a complete, ready-to-feed fish feed pellet for tilapia and dory, made with microbial protein upcycled from treated post-consumer food waste. Life Lab Resources is the first and only Singapore Food Agency-licensed company in Singapore to upcycle post-consumer mixed food waste into animal feed, and is ISO 22000 certified.
Our feed keeps unavoidable leftover food in productive use instead of sending it to incineration, and returns its nutrients to local food production.
How Our Fish Feed Is Made
- Treat at source. Food waste is treated on-site by our WasteMaster systems, which reduce its weight by up to 80%, eliminate pathogens and preserve its nutrients.
- Collect and check. Life Lab Resources collects the treated substrate and brings it to our bio-refinery, where it goes through acceptance checks, sieving, characterisation and preparation.
- Ferment. The substrate is inoculated with our proprietary blend of ingredients and microbes and undergoes solid-state fermentation, which builds a protein-rich microbial biomass and improves digestibility.
- Formulate and pellet. The fermented ingredient is formulated into a complete grower feed and pelleted, with food safety, traceability and quality controls applied throughout.
Why Farms Choose Our Feed
- Complete grower feed for tilapia and dory, in floating and sinking pellets.

- Improved digestibility from solid-state fermentation.
- Consistent quality through our proprietary co-blend, substrate acceptance criteria and finished-product testing.
- Licensed and certified: produced under a Singapore Food Agency licence and an ISO 22000 food safety management system.
- Proven on farm: fed to tilapia at Metro Farm, a local aquaponics farm, for the past two years.
- Circular by design: recovers nutrients from food that would otherwise be incinerated and reduces reliance on newly produced feed resources.
