Algatech products

Astaxanthin is known as "The king of carotenoids", a natural wonder and one of nature’s most potent antioxidants, known to provide a wide variety of health benefits. AstaPure® astaxanthin is derived from a microalgae called Haematococcus pluvialis.

FucoVital is an innovative proprietary composition for liver health derived from the Phaeodactylum tricornutum microalgae. This type of microalgae is a naturally rich source of fucoxanthin, an orange-brown carotenoid which plays a part in photosynthesis and helps protect the microalgae from oxidative stress. While fucoxanthin provides excellent anti-oxidative benefits like many other carotenoids, its true value goes far beyond. The consumption of algae has always been considered one of the reasons for the superior good health and longevity of certain Asian groups. Recent research institutes from around the world have identified fucoxanthin as a major contributor to the Japanese diet’s health benefits.

Located in the Arava desert, one of the most arid and remote places on earth, Algatech enjoys renewable energy from the first solar facility in Israel, and water from an ancient sea 1km below the surface. Over time, Algatech, a leading astaxanthin manufacturer,  grew to become one of the world’s largest photobioreactor facilities containing more than 600 kilometers of glass tubes with a variety of cutting edge cultivation and process technologies. We are leveraging the Arava desert’s unique climate conditions, and remote location, to ensure the highest quality standards. Our team is relentlessly engaged with the study of microalgae and the development of new and groundbreaking microalgae cultivation technology for astaxanthin and fucoxanthin derived from microalgae.
