Sidestreams

An Untapped Industrial Resource

Food and agricultural industries generate large amounts of nutrient-rich sidestreams. Many are unstable, poorly digestible, and discarded. This wastes resources. KYNDA upcycles sidestreams directly at the source through fermentation.

Fermentation

Nature’s Original Conversion Principle

Fermentation – especially with fungi – is a highly efficient way to convert low-availability nutrients into valuable food ingredients.Submerged fungal fermentation translates this natural principle into scalable industrial processes. KYNDA's  approach is purpose-built for food-industry sidestreams.

Mycelium

Protein-rich, versatile ingredient

KYNDA mycelium combines strong nutritional and functional properties:• complete amino acid profile• food-tech functionality• rapid growth• natural umami & kokumiThis creates high value from previously underutilised sidestreams.

Process

Unlocking circular economy

KYNDA's process is efficient, resilient, and decentralised. We provide end-to-end support—from cultures to hardware.Our low CAPEX/OPEX model enables on-site fermentation.

About Us

KYNDA was founded in 2019 by Daniel MacGowan von Holstein and Franziskus Schnabel. Years of R&D led to a core technology addressing the limits of plant-based proteins.Today, KYNDA is a B2B technology company enabling circular value creation.

Vision

Fermentation is key to sustainable nutrition. Our vision is a system without waste and with full biomass utilisation. KYNDA turns sidestreams into nutrition for a resilient, circular food system.
