Nutrex Hawaii, Inc.
Information
Microalgae research specialist Dr. Gerald R. Cysewski came to Keahole Point on the Big Island of Hawaii in 1984 to develop the world’s first large scale system for spirulina under continuous cultivation. Dr. Cysewski located his company along the Kona Coast due to the location’s ideal conditions—abundant sunshine, fresh drinking water, trade wind breezes, and ultra-deep ocean water used to supplement the culture process. From the start, Dr. Cysewski has overseen each step of our farm and production facility, setting the standard for spirulina. In 1999, Dr. Cysewski began cultivating Haematococcus pluvialis which produces natural astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is known worldwide as one of nature's most powerful antioxidants. Nutrex Hawaii's Hawaiian Spirulina® and BioAstin® Hawaiian Astaxanthin® are the nations' #1 brands in their respective categories. We are proud to have pioneered this growing industry, providing the benefits of careful and scientifically cultured microalgae for healthy nutrition worldwide.
