CYANOTECH CORPORATION
 Based
in beautiful Kona, Hawaii, Cyanotech has pioneered the use
of microalgae technology to produce natural functional nutrients,
including Hawaiian Spirulina Pacifica®.
 Cyanotech operates at a unique, 90-acre facility using patented
technology where microalgae, including spirulina, is cultured
in shallow, open ponds (approximately 20 cm deep) adjacent
to the Pacific Ocean. The combination of fresh water and supplemental,
deep ocean water is used to fill the ponds.
Given the availability of natural
resources such as a warm climate, geothermal (volcanic) energy
and pacific seawater, Hawaiian Spirulina
Pacifica® has
very low heavy metals and is well suited to health food applications.
Cyanotech
material is widely acknowledged as the best quality Spirulina
available globally. In March 2009 Cyanotech published the results
of nutritional comparison testing of Hawaiian Spirulina
Pacifica®.
