Algomed is the German chlorella brand of Roquette Klötze. In Klötze (Saxony-Anhalt), Chlorella vulgaris is grown in a closed system of glass tubes – shielded from the outside air and without open ponds. At Plenthera you will find Algomed Chlorella in tablet form.
About Algomed
Most chlorella is grown in open basins, where weather, dust and other micro-organisms affect quality. Algomed opts for a closed photobioreactor: the algae grow in hundreds of kilometres of glass tubes, with controlled temperature, light and water quality. This makes the growing conditions easy to control and protects the alga from environmental contaminants.
Algomed is part of the French Roquette group, a major producer of plant-based ingredients. Production and processing into tablets take place in Germany.
