Aurora Algae has expanded its operations to Perth in Australia. The company is a developer of an algae-based platform for sustainable products while its premium range of algae-based products produces high-performance levels. The company has opened its new Regional Headquarters for overseeing the construction as well as the operation of its first facility on a commercial-scale in Northwest Australia.
The inauguration of the company’s Perth office along with the ramping up of its Australian commercial operations follows closely on the heels of the company’s first photosynthetic platform for producing sustainable, premium products. Recently, Aurora Algae announced the expansion of its product portfolio including high concentration fatty acids, renewable fuels, fish feed and high density proteins.
Matthew Caspari, Co-Founder and the Australian Managing Director of Aurora Algae, has mentioned that searching for an ideal location depended upon key factors that were critical in delivering maximum value through the company’s high-tech process in farming. Caspari also stated that a combination of the right resource blend and a perfect climate that includes skilled labor, abundant seawater and industrial CO2 made Northwestern Australia as the ideal spot for establishing a high-yielding commercial facility. Aurora Algae specializes in optimizing algae usage as the maximum productive and widely recognized biomass source.
