TAN CHONG HUI IS SECURING OUR FOOD FUTURE
The co-founder of deep tech firm JAH Tech is changing the perception of farming as a low-tech sunset industry.
In the words of entrepreneur Tan Chong Hui, “there is no problem that deep tech cannot solve.”
Since 2019, his company JAH Tech has been working to tackle societal and environmental issues and effect positive change in our world. Its expansive spectrum of cutting-edge technologies leverages 20 years of research and has been applied across beauty and wellness, manufacturing and engineering industries.
“In the IT industry, we always worked on a time-to-market basis, and offered products to solve current problems,” Tan, CEO and co-founder of JAH Tech, explains. “I was drawn to deep tech because much of our research focuses on solving longer-term challenges to achieve the greater good.”
JAH Cultura — the newest addition to the JAH Tech group companies, which includes JAH Life, JAH Materials and JAH Gaia — is positioned as the answer to our sustainable food future. Its proprietary technology can help boost agricultural yields in terms of speed and quantity, and without hurting our environment at that.
Agriculture, according to statistics, generates 26 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. Contributing to this are crop production for human consumption and animal feed, and supply chain processes such as packaging and transport.
JAH Cultura accelerates growth and health of crops by enabling easier and faster absorption of water molecules. It features Unitatem CULTURATM, a proprietary ceramic-alloy material that emits a natural electromagnetic field to break down water molecules into smaller clusters. Certified safe under the EU Reach for Chemical Substances, it can be applied to seeds, water or soil.
