OMEGA-3 RICH NANNOCHLOROPSIS MICROALGAE
Nannochloropsis Microalgae farm
Pure Omega-3, without harming fish.
THE CHALLENGE
Long-chain Omega-3s are vital for heart and brain health, yet just 1 in 5 Australians consume enough. At the same time, traditional sources of Omega-3, fish and krill, are under threat from overfishing, bycatch, and contamination, endangering their sustainability.
OUR SOLUTION
Fish and krill don’t produce Omega-3s; their source of this vital nutrient is microalgae, found at the base of the marine food chain.
So we're forging a sustainable approach. We are growing Nannochloropsis Microalgae on land, specifically near Byron Bay, leveraging the expertise of Australian scientists and engineers. This strain of microalgae thrives on sunlight and CO2, making it an ecologically friendly and renewable option.
The strong and rising demand for algae-derived Omega-3, priced higher than our production costs, highlights both the economic viability and the increasing recognition of sustainable Omega-3 sources' ecological importance.
