Designed to be sustainable, our algae ingredients are produced via closed fermentation systems using technology that is not reliant on light - a critical element for scale, feasibility, and economic viability

Sugarcane, one of the world's most productive sugar sources, is used as feedstock. Our production facility is situated among sugar cane fields and next door to a sugar cane mill in Brazil*. The sugar cane waste provides renewable energy that powers the sugar mill and our ingredients facility.

Hey, humans. It's our turn now.
