Nutrex Hawaii was founded in Kailua-Kona, Hawaiʻi in 1990 by Dr. Gerald Cysewski, a world-renowned expert in microalgae and carotenoids. Their mission is to utilize the benefits of microalgae to improve health and extend lives in the world wide community. Carved out of land that was once a barren lava flow, Nutrex Hawaii is located on the pristine Kona coast on the Big Island of Hawaiʻi. Their farm draws on the natural resources that surround us – abundant warm sunlight, pure deep ocean water and 100% fresh water drawn from Hawaiian aquifers to cultivate: spirulina andastaxanthin.

Nutrex Hawaii's corporate philosophy is to leave the land and environment in better condition than when they started. All of their microalgae comes from their parent company Cyanotech's 90-acre farm located on the pristine Kona Coast on Hawaiʻi Island. Their team is steadfast in its commitment to sustainability and everything we do is to create a cleaner, safer and healthier world.
