Microalgae have moved well beyond health food niches, today they are serious, scalable raw materials for food manufacturers looking to meet demand for clean-label, nutrient-rich, and sustainable products. ALGANEX gives food producers and product developers direct access to verified algae suppliers worldwide, with full transparency on quality and origin.

What algae bring to your formulation

Species like Spirulina, Chlorella, and Schizochytrium deliver what few other natural ingredients can match in a single raw material: complete plant-based protein reaching up to 70% by dry weight, long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) without fish-derived sourcing, natural pigments such as phycocyanin and chlorophyll for clean-label coloring, and a dense spectrum of micronutrients including vitamin B12, iron, iodine, and beta-carotene. Several species are approved under EU Novel Food Regulation 2015/2283, making them a viable and compliant choice for product development across European markets.

Where food manufacturers are using them

From protein bars and plant-based meat alternatives to functional beverages, fortified dairy substitutes, and nutraceutical formulations. Algae raw materials sourced through ALGANEX are already part of products on shelves across Europe and beyond.

Sourcing you can trust

Mislabeling and quality inconsistency remain real risks in the global algae market. The ALGANEX Trust Certificate addresses this directly: every participating supplier undergoes independent third-party lab verification confirming species identity, purity, and nutritional content. Your purchasing decision is based on facts, not just claims.

Browse verified algae by species, format, origin, and certification, and find the right ingredient for your next product.
