Bringing Food Concepts To Reality™

ABOUT FIRC

The Food Innovation and Resource Centre (FIRC) was launched in 2007 as a joint initiative between Singapore Polytechnic and Enterprise Singapore (previously SPRING Singapore). As the Centre of Innovation for Food Industry in Singapore, we are established to provide food enterprises with holistic technical solutions in food product development including formulation & process development, packaging, shelf life test, sensory evaluation and pilot production for market testing. In addition, we are capable of helping companies to improve shop floor productivity via automation and digitalisation.

Our dedicated SFA-licensed pilot plant, application laboratories, test kitchen and sensory suite are helmed by a core team of full-time, experienced professionals who work with food companies to develop exciting new variants, solve manufacturing issues and adopt new practices for an increasingly sophisticated food and beverage market.

TESTIMONIALS

We were looking for ways to reduce the amount of time and labour spent on menial task. FIRC approached the problem methodically, and managed to successfully help us streamline our operational processes in production and storage.

If your business does not have a technical team or lack technical background, it would be good to work with FIRC on a project basis. Even if you do have your own laboratory or technical team, you can use FIRC's resources to scale up to pilot plant production. The team at FIRC is always helpful and a pleasure to work with.
