MiAlgae Building Production Facility for Omega-3

MiAlgae, a biotechnology innovator based in Edinburgh, Scotland, has successfully reached commercial-scale of its sustainable marine omega-3 product, NaturAlgae, at its demonstration site in Scotland. The company has subsequently announced securing £14 million ($15.6 million USD) in funding to accelerate its operations and scale production.

The 2023 launch of MiAlgae’s demonstration site has proven the viability of the company’s approach. That approach repurposes nutrient-rich by-products from whisky distillation to grow microalgae, providing an eco-friendly source of omega-3s. This development allows MiAlgae to supply the market with an alternative to the existing unsustainable product derived from wild-caught fish.
