We clean water while developing better ingredients and creating circular solutions to improve our food systems. We stop pollution at the source, upcycling nutrients into ingredients that improve people’s health.

We are creating functional ingredients

Our key source

Lemna is a tiny but remarkable aquatic plant that has the unique ability to clean water as it grows, simultaneously producing valuable compounds, that we then extract to create functional ingredients.

Equivalent to over 16 bathtubs

Removes about 0.9 kg of CO2eq

Equivalent to 3.7 km driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle

1 hectare of our Lemna growth system removes 58 kg of Nitrogen daily, equivalent to 250 kg of CO2eq

That equates to over 90,000 kg of CO2eq each year per hectare of lemna we cultivate.

SDG 14:

Prevent dangerous nutrient levels in the ocean and stop marine pollution.

We're pioneering a new era of sustainable food systems by harnessing the cleansing power of Lemna. We have developed a fully circular value chain that includes everything from cleaning water by upcycling Lemna to producing innovative ingredients that improve people’s health. This ensures that our business model fully aligns with the social and environmental outcomes we aim to achieve. 

We're passionate about circular economy and believe we can revolutionize the way we approach water management and food production.
