Science connected to commercial purpose
NuFoods was established to develop high-value microalgae ingredients from New Zealand for global nutrition markets.
Our work connects biological science, cultivation engineering, ingredient processing and customer requirements. The aim is to create a business recognised for useful products, sound technical evidence and dependable commercial relationships.
Build the company, not only the production facility.
Products, quality, customers, people and operating discipline have to develop alongside the technical system.
Another source within an established ingredient market
Omega-3 supply already operates internationally. NuFoods is developing another biological and geographic option for customers whose requirements can be met technically and commercially.
Ingredient focus
EPA-rich algal oil provides a clear initial product area around which science, processing and customer qualification can be organised.
Customer relevance
Development priorities are informed by application, specification, documentation and future supply requirements.
Measured expansion
Additional formats and ingredients should follow evidence and customer need rather than precede them.
Canterbury,
New Zealand
Canterbury connects scientific research, engineering, food production and an export-oriented business environment.
NuFoods is based in the region while it develops and evaluates the capabilities required for microalgae ingredient production.
A specialist international ingredient supplier
Our long-term intent is to establish NuFoods as a recognised supplier of specialist microalgae ingredients.
- Products defined around customer and application requirements
- Scientific and analytical evidence that supports qualification
- Manufacturing quality and repeatable process performance
- Direct technical and commercial relationships
- Knowledge and intellectual property developed responsibly over time
Five complementary functions shaping one ingredient business
NuFoods brings together company strategy, engineering delivery, technical direction, scientific oversight and commercial development.
Commercial reality is part of technical development
Science has to connect with product performance, processing, quality, energy use, economics and the customer's qualification process.
