The global leader in sustainable specialty food ingredients, Corbion, has announced the granting of its latest US patent related to a liquid suspension of algal biomass with a distinctive DHA-rich omega-3 profile.
The Dutch company has developed a unique design for a suspension of lysed algal cells in oil, achieving greater stability and improved performance in animal feed applications.
The unique features of this patent have been developed through Corbion's algal fermentation platform, representing a major innovation achievement and strengthening its position in the market, helping it stand out from competitors.
In addition, Corbion's AlgaPrime products are fully traceable and reduce dependence on ocean resources, which provides a key point of differentiation for both customers and end markets.
"With broad protection in place that is still expanding, AlgaPrime™ DHA LS is well positioned to support our customers across aquaculture, animal nutrition, and pet food," said Tim Rutten, Head of Nutrition and Pharma Ingredients.
In line with this, Corbion and U.S.-based biotechnology firm Kuehnle AgroSystems (KAS) signed in 2025 a collaboration agreement to develop and commercialize a natural feed ingredient produced through algae fermentation.
Currently, Corbion holds active patents in key markets, including Europe, several Latin American countries, China, Australia, and the United States.
