In the heart of the Altmark

Algomed's Chlorella Farm

For over 20 years in Klötze in the Altmark region

High-Quality Chlorella Cultivation in +500 km of Glass Tubes

One of the largest algae farms in Europe

The starting signal

First, our glass tubes are filled with water from our own spring. Afterwards, nutrients and our specially cultivated algae starter cultures are added, and the algae begin to grow.

The growth

Over the next few days, the Chlorella grows in our 500 km long glass tube system.

It is optimally supplied with sunlight and protected from contamination. This is completely different from, for example, ponds, where dark zones in the deeper layers hinder growth.

The Harvest

Once the algae is ready for harvesting, it is separated from the water through the process of centrifugation. Afterwards, it is gently dried and can be consumed immediately or further processed.

For over 20 years, we have remained true to our principles.

01

100% handmade

The entire cultivation process, from the first algae from our strain collection to the finished product, takes place here in Klötze. The production process is thus completely in our hands and is certified according to the international standards HACCP, GMP, ISO 9001, ISO 22000, ISO 50001, Kosher, and HALAL.

02

Controlled Quality

Thanks to the many years of experience of our highly qualified employees, permanent controls by our in-house laboratory, and additional quality controls by external laboratories and authorities, we can ensure the first-class quality of our products.

03

Pure ingredients

Our "aquariums in tubular form" are filled with water from our in-house spring, which is fed from an aquifer at a depth of over 45 m. This is very pure water, which is also well mineralized.

We also do not use any dyes or preservatives in the subsequent production.

04

Sustainable cultivation

We conduct intensive research to continuously optimize our cultivation processes. This allowed us to reduce our electricity consumption per kilogram of algae produced by more than a third and almost halve our water consumption between 2012 and 2017.

A tour of our algae farm

In 2000, we started construction on Europe's largest microalgae production facility. The facility was then described as a "technological leap in microalgae production."
