Innovation
Pioneering Squalene Sourcing Strategies
Emphasizing environmental responsibility, our innovative approach prioritizes amaranth oil over conventional animal- and plant-based squalene sources. This a smaller ecological footprint and ensuring greater process efficacy due to higher concentration. Our squalene offers superior bioavailability, providing deep skin penetration and delivery of essential nutrients and antioxidants.
Results-Oriented Solutions

Transparency and traceability are at the core of our mission. Our goal is to ensure a supply chain that is transparent at every step, from sourcing to production. We take pride in fostering strong relationships with our partners and stakeholders, enabling us to maintain a traceable and accountable process. This commitment allows us to uphold the highest standards of sustainability and ethics, as we work towards our shared vision of preserving our oceans and promoting responsible practices in the cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries.
Sustainability
Empowering Marine Conservation
We distinguish ourselves as the exclusive squalene/squalane producer dedicated to allocating a substantial share of our profits to marine conservation projects. Our commitment to supporting these initiatives underscores our unwavering mission to protect and preserve our oceans. By choosing our plant-based squalene/squalane, customers and partners alike contribute to a noble cause that sustains underwater ecosystems and fosters a legacy of thriving seas for future generations.
Preserving Ocean Guardians
The Vital Role of Sharks in Climate Resilience
We value sharks as guardians of our oceans, but millions perish yearly due to the shark liver oil squalene demand, devastating marine ecosystems. Beyond their vital role in biodiversity, sharks contribute to carbon sequestration through the ‘shark carbon sink’. With sharks being slow to reproduce and mature, their populations cannot withstand the high levels of fishing pressure and demand for their liver oil. Our commitment to plant-based squalene from amaranth aims to protect sharks, preserve oceans, and contribute to keeping our planet’s
delicate ecological balance.
Sustainable Sourcing
Amaranth - A Catalyst for Positive Change
We have chosen amaranth as our source of plant-based squalene. Amaranth requires less water than other sources, endures harsh weather, and its crops provide employment under fair working conditions globally. By selecting amaranth, we’re equally committed to preserving the planet’s oceans and freshwater reserves.
