MiAlgae

MiAlgae is a biotechnology company based in Scotland that specializes in the production of omega-3 rich microalgae through a circular economy approach. The company utilizes nutrient-rich co-products from the whisky distillation industry as a feedstock to grow microalgae, providing a sustainable alternative to fish oil. Their flagship product, NaturAlgae, is a dried microalgae powder high in docosahexaenoic acid and other oils, primarily targeting the aquaculture and pet food markets. By decoupling omega-3 production from marine sources, MiAlgae aims to reduce overfishing and the environmental impact of traditional fish oil supply chains. The company operates a commercial-scale demonstrator site and is expanding its manufacturing capabilities to meet global demand for sustainable ingredients.
