#02. CELL-CULTURED FOOD INDUSTRY NEWS |
 | 식물성 단백질 혼합 ‘하이브리드 스테이크’ 출시 눈앞 식물성 단백질이 혼합된 '하이브리드 스테이크'가 출시를 앞두고 있다. 현재 오렌지카우가 중점 개발 중인 하이브리드 배양육은 세포배양물에 식물성 단백질을 혼합하여 스테이크 형태로 제조하는 기술의 결과물이다. 하이브리드 배양육은 생산단가를 획기적으로 낮추고 안전성도 쉽게 확보할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 특히 세포배양물 없이 100% 식물성 소재로만 인공모조육을 제조할 경우 인류 건강과 환경보호 및 동물복지까지 챙길 수 있는 일석삼조의 효과가 있다. 한편 오렌지카우(대표 주선태)는 “인간과 환경을 생각하는 미래 고기”를 생산한다는 비전을 갖고 세포배양육, 식물성 단백질 고기 및 미생물 단백질과 곤충단백질을 이용한 대체육 제조기술을 개발하고 있다.
최근에는 가축 사육 두수를 줄여도 양질의 육단백질을 공급할 수 있는 세포배양육 개발에 힘을 쏟고 있다. Plant-Based Protein Hybrid Steak Set for LaunchA "hybrid steak" blended with plant-based protein is on the verge of being released.
Currently, Orange Cow is focusing on the development of hybrid cultivated meat, which involves combining cultured cells with plant-based protein to create a steak-like product.
Hybrid cultivated meat offers significant advantages, including drastically reducing production costs and ensuring safety more easily.
Moreover, producing artificial meat using 100% plant-based ingredients, without any cultured cells, can deliver a threefold benefit—promoting human health, protecting the environment, and improving animal welfare.
Meanwhile, Orange Cow (CEO Joo Sun-tae) is pursuing its vision of producing "future meat with consideration for humans and the environment." The company is developing alternative meat production technologies utilizing cultivated meat, plant-based protein, microbial protein, and insect protein.
Recently, Orange Cow has been dedicating efforts to developing cultivated meat as a way to provide high-quality meat protein while reducing the number of livestock raised. | |
 | 세포배양식품협회, 정총…향후 활동ㆍ산업 발전 방향 논의 한국세포배양식품협회(회장 김성진)는 20일 행정사법인리더스 회의실에서 정기총회를 개최했다. 세포배양식품협회는 국내 세포배양육 연구개발 관련 스타트업이 설립한 단체로, 초대회장인 김성진 셀미트 COO를 중심으로 다나그린, 셀미트, 셀쿠아, 슈팹, 스페이스에프, 심플플래닛, 씨위드, 에프엔프레시, 윙스타바이오, 티센바이오팜, 팡세 등 11개 기업이 회원사로 참여하고 있다. 지난해 3월 8일 농림축산식품부로부터 정식 법인 설립 허가를 받았으며, 같은 해 12월 동국대에서 창립총회를 가졌다. 주요 목표는 세포배양식품 산업의 국내 시장 안착과 대한민국 식량주권 확립, 세포배양식품의 글로벌 경쟁력 제고, 지구온난화 방지 및 동물복지를 고려한 건강한 먹거리 확보다. 맥킨지는 세포배양식품이 2030년까지 전체 육류 시장의 1%(약 32조원)를 차지할 것으로 내다봤으며, AT커니는 2040년까지 35%(약 581조원)를 차지할 것으로 예측했다. 한국 정부는 이같은 시장 변화에 대응해 2023년 5월 세포배양식품을 인정하는 식품위생법 시행규칙 일부개정안을 마련했으며, 식품의약품안전처는 한시적 기준 및 규격 인정 기준 일부개정안을 통해 산업화를 위한 법적 기반을 마련하고 있다. Cultivated Food Association Holds General Meeting to Discuss Future Activities and Industry DevelopmentThe Korea Cultivated Food Association (Chairman Kim Sung-jin) held its annual general meeting on the 20th at the Leaders Administrative Law Firm conference room.

Additionally, the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety is laying the legal groundwork for industrialization through temporary standards and regulatory revisions. | |
#03. This week's notable highlight |
 | 2025 싱가포르의 식품 안전 보안법 발효, 무엇이 달라졌나? 홍콩의 비건 및 지속 가능한 라이프 스타일에 대한 가이드와 뉴스를 제공하는 플랫폼 Green Queen에 따르면, 싱가포르는 세계적으로 식품 안전 기준이 가장 높은 국가 중 하나로 평가 받고 있다. 이에 싱가포르 정부는 이러한 명성을 유지하고 글로벌 식품 허브로서의 경쟁력을 강화하기 위해 지속적으로 식품 안전 관련 법률과 규제를 개선해 왔다. 올해 1월 8일 싱가포르 의회는 새로운 식품 안전 및 보안법 (Food Safety and Security Bill, FSSB)을 통과시켰다. 기존 싱가포르의 식품 안전 관련 법률은 각기 다른 초점을 가지고 있었지만, 일부 규정이 중복되어 기업들이 준수 과정에서 어려움을 겪었다. 특히, 수입 식품 검역을 다루는 법과 품질 기준을 규정하는 법이 유사한 내용을 포함하고 있어 기업들에게 혼란을 초래했다. 또한, 배양육, 대체 단백질, 유전자 변형 식품과 같은 신식품을 다룰 명확한 규정이 없어 새로운 법안의 필요성이 대두되었다. 새롭게 시행되는 FSSB는 기존 9개 법령을 하나로 통합해 중복을 제거하고 규제를 단순화하는 것이 핵심이다. 이를 통해 기업들은 규제를 준수하는 데 드는 시간과 비용을 절감할 수 있으며, 소비자들은 더욱 명확하고 강화된 안전 기준의 혜택을 누릴 수 있게 된다. 새로운 법안은 ▲식품 관리 계획 도입 ▲신식품 승인 절차 강화 ▲디지털 데이터 허브 활용 ▲포장 및 라벨링 기준 강화 ▲처벌 규정 강화 등의 내용을 포함하고 있다. 싱가포르의 새로운 법안은 한국 식품 기업들에게도 영향을 미칠 것으로 보인다. 특히, 신식품 승인 절차 강화와 포장·라벨링 기준 강화는 한국 기업들이 싱가포르 식품청(SFA)의 엄격한 기준을 충족해야 함을 의미한다. 이에 따라 대체 단백질 제품을 포함한 신식품을 수출하려는 기업들은 사전 시장 승인을 받아야 하며, 상세한 안전성 평가 보고서를 제출해야 한다. 또한, 모든 식품에는 성분, 원산지, 알레르기 유발 물질 등의 정보를 명확히 표시해야 하며, 이를 준수하지 않을 경우 처벌이 강화될 예정이다. Implementation of Singapore's Food Safety and Security Bill in 2025: What Has Changed?According to Green Queen, a platform providing guides and news on vegan and sustainable lifestyles in Hong Kong, Singapore is recognized as one of the countries with the highest food safety standards globally.
The Singaporean government has continuously improved food safety laws and regulations to maintain this reputation and strengthen its competitiveness as a global food hub. On January 8 of this year, the Singaporean Parliament passed the new Food Safety and Security Bill (FSSB).
Singapore's previous food safety laws had different focal points, but some regulations overlapped, making compliance challenging for businesses. In particular, laws governing the inspection of imported food and those setting quality standards contained similar provisions, causing confusion among companies. Additionally, there were no clear regulations for novel foods such as cultivated meat, alternative proteins, and genetically modified foods, highlighting the need for a new law.
The newly implemented FSSB aims to consolidate nine existing laws into a single framework, eliminating redundancy and simplifying regulations. This will help businesses reduce the time and cost required for compliance, while consumers will benefit from clearer and stricter safety standards. The new law includes key provisions such as the introduction of food control plans, stricter approval processes for novel foods, the utilization of a digital data hub, enhanced packaging and labeling standards, and strengthened enforcement measures.
Singapore’s new law is expected to impact South Korean food companies as well. In particular, the stricter approval process for novel foods and enhanced packaging and labeling requirements mean that Korean businesses must meet the rigorous standards set by the Singapore Food Agency (SFA).
Companies exporting novel foods, including alternative protein products, must obtain prior market approval and submit detailed safety assessment reports, covering toxicity, allergenicity, production safety, and exposure risks. Additionally, all food products must clearly display essential information, including ingredients, country of origin, and allergen warnings, and failure to comply will result in stricter penalties. | |

Unilever has changed the recipe for its vegan Magnum ice cream range, replacing pea protein with soy. It has also refreshed its packaging to a more premium design, after sales of the dairy-free ice creams grew by more than 75% in the UK last year. Japan’s largest airline, All Nippon Airways, has introduced two vegan ANA Original Ramen options for First and Business Class flyers on international routes. Flights departing from Japan will serve the Negi Miso Ramen, and those coming from overseas will feature the Tonkotsu Style Ramen. San Antonio-based Good Eat’n, owned by NBA star Chris Paul, has launched Dairy Free White Cheddar Popcorn. After debuting at Expo West in March, it will be available on its website and GoPuff for $4.99 per 4.40oz bag and $1.99 for 1oz bag. Israeli startup Forsea Foods hosted a tasting for its cultivated unagi in Japan, the world’s largest market for freshwater eel, with support from the Israeli embassy in Japan and the Israel Export Institute. Fellow cultivated meat producer Simple Planet – based in South Korea – has successfully developed a serum-free culture medium that can potentially reduce costs by 99.8%. It is also working with the Halal Science Center at Thailand’s Chulalongkorn University to achieve halal certification for its cultured meat products. | |
