Member - ALGAMA Ⓥ

Algama’s DNA is to exploit the potential of microalgae, up to now nothing more than a dietary supplement, and incorporate them in our daily food. Since its founding in 2013, Algama has been the world's pioneer in microalgae food. Algama has developed the first plant-based food lines, elaborated with the use of various selected algae, to create substitutes for egg, seafood, meat, and milk, or create healthy beverages, chocolates, and nutritional shakes enriched with proteins, vitamins, and antioxidants. Algama has developed a real food innovation platform by compounding selected algae and algae components into formulations focused on critical F&B industry requirements such as structure, taste, stability, and industrial scalability. The Algama food innovation platform is fully in line with the expectations of food companies to offer 100% plant-based sustainable alternatives to their animal-based products. First, the development of algae ingredients as food premixes to provide the desired essential features for food products (nutrition, texture, taste) facilitates the formulation and manufacturing of plant-based end-products and are sold by Algama in a business-to-business (B2B) relation to entering end-products of large food companies. These premixes act as texture and taste substitutes in egg, dairy, seafood, and meat-alternative products. They can also be used as a natural coloring in food and beverage or as nutritional enhancers. Second, our premixes allow a safe formulation of final products without any artificial additives (no artificial colors, no preservatives), without soy, without using GMO plants, and without gluten in compliance with all existing Clean Labels. We developed recipes with fewer than 10 separate ingredients to increase sustainability and consumers’ confidence. Third, thanks to the compounded formulation process, Algama can launch products rapidly from its platform. Finally, to achieve the best plant-based alternatives, Algama fully exploits the unique potential of algae to bring high quality functional and nutritional properties to our ingredients and final products Our global objective is to create food solutions able to tackle the climate change crisis with a systemic approach & economically sustainable technologies to improve our environmental situation on a global scale.
