Microalgae biomass was named Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) as "superfood" because of its high nutritional power, not only for their protein levels (approx. 50% dry matter) easily digestible due to the complete amino acid profile, but also because of components essential for the metabolism, such as minerals, vitamins, antioxidants and polyunsaturated fatty acids (especially Omega 3 and 6).

The specific nature of its composition, can be used to correct nutritional imbalances, acting as a food supplement in vegetarian diets, vegan, crudivegan, for athletes, students and for production animals and pets.

We produce microalgal biomass wit premium quality and develop new products supplemented with marine microalgae that can be used as a supplement in animal feed (FEED) and human (FOOD) and distributed by the different marketing channels.

We invest in a sustainable environmental commitment to integrate the reduction of greenhouse gases (mainly CO2) with the integral management of waste streams and by the production of biomass in a new innovative concept of biorefinery which uses CO2, sea water, sunlight and nutrients, to produce a biomass with high nutritional value which is utilized for various purposes.

The microalgae, which by turn produce oxygen, consume 1,87kg of CO2 per kg of dry biomass produced. Thus, we have reduced CO2 emissions since we purify the air, releasing O2. Furthermore, in order to close the loop, and support minimum waste, nutrients consumed by microalgae are recovered, purified by clean technologies and reintroduced in the microalgae cultures.

Finally, the residual biomass which flow from the cleaning process are also utilizied for obtaining biofuels. Accordingly, we developed a unique installation in its characteristics which produces bio-crude by hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL), applying high pressures and temperatures to the biomass. This bio-crude oil can be used both for the production of biofuels or as starting point for a biorefinery composed of "building blocks".

Currently we have one of Europe's largest production plants in closed systems (1100 m3 with production 60t ms / a), with a strong initial investment in partnership with our strategic partner, the Electricity Company of Madeira (EEM).

Our own production technology is based on the use of closed photo-bioreactors (FBRs), with air-lift, 8 meters high and arranged in sequence to optimize solar capture and bacteriological control, for a biomass maximum quality. Currently, 1% of world production of microalgae biomass occurs in closed photo-bioreactors.

We are a young company dedicated to the production of biomass obtained from microalgae, which contains highly nutritional components such as polyunsaturated fatty acids (EPA, DHA), vitamins, essential amino acids, minerals and pigments, among others. All these are highly valuable in the preparation of nutraceuticals, food and feed, as well as for the production of biofuels (bio-crude).

Our facilities are located at a strategic point where the water of the Atlantic Ocean is pure, the annual temperature fluctuations are minimal and where solar radiation is optimal for the cultivation of microalgae.

'We have a highly qualified team that includes professionals from different areas such as Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Engineering and Pharmaceutical, among others, which allows us to find comprehensive solutions and products with high added value.
