Corbion Makes Strides in Sustainable Nutrition
Corbion, a prominent name in sustainable ingredient solutions, has recently achieved a significant milestone by securing multiple regulatory approvals from China's General Administration of Customs (GACC). This marks a critical step for Corbion in offering its algae-derived omega-3 DHA solutions within the growing sectors of human and animal nutrition in China.
Introduction of AlgaPrime™ and AlgaVia™ DHA
The omega-3 products from Corbion, marketed under the brands AlgaPrime™ DHA and AlgaVia™ DHA, received essential registrations from GACC. These brands represent premium algae-derived omega-3 offerings aimed at fulfilling the increasing demand for quality nutrition in both humans and animals. As these regulatory hurdles have been cleared, Corbion is fully prepared to introduce these innovative nutrition solutions to the Chinese market.
Market Opportunities in China
“China is an important and fast-growing market for algae-derived omega-3 solutions in both food and feed,” stated Tim Rutten, Vice President of Nutrition & Pharma at Corbion. With the new registrations and licenses, Corbion can now cater to Chinese customers looking for high-quality, safe, and sustainable nutrition ingredients.
Benefits of AlgaVia™ DHA and AlgaPrime™ DHA
AlgaVia™ DHA and AlgaPrime™ DHA are designed to provide a clean, concentrated, and sustainable source of omega-3 DHA. Produced using controlled fermentation techniques on land from microalgae, these products utilize renewable energy resources like sugar cane, significantly reducing dependency on marine resources and minimizing carbon emissions. Trusted by major players in various sectors, these ingredients not only enhance omega-3 profiles but also improve supply chain resilience in light of the surging global demand.
