Campo Research Pte. Ltd.

What Campo Research Pte. Ltd. does

Campo Research Pte. Ltd. is a privately held Singapore-based specialty ingredient company that develops, sources, and supplies botanical active ingredients to cosmetics, personal care, food and nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, oil & gas, and life sciences manufacturers worldwide. The company's core technology platform combines Super-Critical CO2 extraction, Natural Gravity Flow Fractionation, Nano Micro Filtration, and proprietary phytoexpression techniques to produce plant-derived functional ingredients — most notably honeysuckle-based botanical green preservatives (Campo Plantservative WSr water-soluble and WMr lipo-oil soluble variants), solar UV filtering enzymes (UVzymes and UV-Extremo-zymes), and UV damage repair genes expressed from plants (Phyto-Pseudo-p53). Its catalog spans over 1,000 active ingredients sourced from global botanical origins including Amazonian rainforest, Australian tea tree, Ayurvedic, Chinese, Japanese and Korean mushrooms, Okinawan herbs, Malay herbs, Siddha medicinal plants, and South Pacific ingredients.

The business operates a direct B2B sales model through its website (campo-research.com and campo-research.com.br for Latin America), where prospective customers complete a New Customer Application to access password-protected product catalogs — a qualification-based, quotation-driven distribution approach rather than disclosed fixed pricing. Revenue is generated through one-time ingredient sales, custom extraction services for novel plant butters and oils from tropical regions, and consultancy services covering product registration, phytochemical analysis, and contract R&D. The company maintains 30+ year supply relationships with Japanese cosmetics majors (Kao, Lion, KOSÉ, Mandom, Manda Fermentation) and holds an extensive portfolio of certifications including US FDA, EPA TSCA, FEMA GRAS, China GB9685/GB2760, Japan MHLW quasi-drug master file, COSMOS, NATRUE, ICCR, and ISO 16128/17034/17025 compliance.

Campo Research employs approximately 5 people and operates with a partner-ecosystem model, relying on Kampoyaki Herbs Laboratory (genetic authentication, ISO 17034/17025 certified), KAMPOYAKI ISRAEL (consumer testing and clinical studies), Bregaglio srl/Zschimmer & Schwarz Group (European co-development), The Green Chemist Consultancy and Gilchrist Technical Services (UK technical services), and University of Pavia (academic research) for specialized capabilities. As of March 2026, the company is engaged in legal action against the Taiwan Food and Drug Administration seeking retraction of an alleged Sudan IV contamination association.
