Cyanotech develops and commercializes natural products from microalgae. The company produces microalgae products for the nutritional supplement and immunological diagnostics markets. It also manufacturers microalgae-based products for the aquaculture feed, pigments and food coloring markets. Microalgae are a diverse group of more than 30,000 species of microscopic plants that have a range of physiological and biochemical characteristics and naturally contain high levels of nutrients. Microalgae represent a largely unexplored and unexploited renewable natural resource, which grow much faster than land-based plants. Under favorable growing conditions, certain microalgae produce a new crop every week. Cyanotech has designed, developed and implemented proprietary production and harvesting technologies, systems and processes, which eliminate many of the stability and contamination problems frequently encountered in the production of microalgae. Cyanotech was one of the first producers of microalgae to receive third party organic certification. Cyanotech is headquartered in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii.
