Greensea

In the context of protection of a unique environment, and thanks to the vision and work of Yves Pietrasanta (Mayor of Mèze and President of the Languedoc-Roussillon region at that time) the year 1981 saw the inauguration of the first lagoon facility on the shore of the Bassin de Thau in Mèze. Research studies carried out on the development of phytoplankton and zooplankton derivatives led, in 1988, to the creation of AQUAMER, a mixed economy company whose main activity was the production of young filter feeding molluscs. During 1992, the company diversified into the production of microalgae, and for more than 15 years was actively involved in research into the industrial application of this field. In 2005, the purchase of AQUAMER by GREENTECH group marked the decisive turning point in the development of the enterprise, which eventually became known as GREENSEA whose clearly defined aim was to make Greensea one of the recognized leaders in the production and applications of microalgae.
