Explore our SGS-verified, ISO-certified raw active ingredients and concentrated extracts engineered for pharmaceutical, functional food, and cosmetic formulations.
A comprehensive examination of cultivating, drying, and standardizing Arthrospira platensis for premium European industrial pipelines.
The biological integrity of Organic Spirulina Powder begins with closed or strictly controlled alkaline raceway ponds (pH 9.2–10.5). For Vilnius-based brand holders targeting elite clean-label segments across the Baltics, raw material must be safeguarded from external atmospheric contaminants and airborne particulates.
By executing hyper-monitored, closed-circulation cultivation using food-grade mineral nutrition, microcystin and microalgal contaminants (like cyanotoxins) are completely arrested at source, eliminating chemical residue before downstream concentration.
Phycocyanin and functional algal polysaccharides are extremely thermosensitive. Traditional bulk hot-air dehydration destabilizes native biliprotein chromophores, reducing active biological value. We utilize low-temperature vacuum spray drying engineered specifically for delicate botanicals.
By flash-evaporating moisture in milliseconds under reduced atmospheric pressure, cellular membranes rupture without thermal degradation. The resulting dark blue-green powder retains over 60–68% crude digestible protein, vibrant color, and active phytopigments.
Complying with European Commission Regulation (EU) 2023/915 for heavy metals (lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH4) requires rigorous raw-water purification. Our multi-stage reverse osmosis filtration systems strip aquifer water of micro-contaminants.
Every industrial production batch consigned to Lithuanian ports undergoes inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) clearance, ensuring full conformance with European food and dietary supplement compliance frameworks.
Lithuania is an established life sciences hub in Northern and Central-Eastern Europe. The demand profile in Vilnius has shifted toward functionally complex formulations.
Formulators in Vilnius, Kaunas, and Klaipėda are pioneering functional dairy, kefir alternatives, and cold-pressed botanical beverages. Organic Spirulina serves two critical functions: natural bioactive green coloring that replaces synthetic dyes (E131, E133) and plant-based micronutrient enrichment containing high concentrations of bioavailable iron and beta-carotene.
The contract encapsulation and tableting sector in the Vilnius region requires precise bulk-density parameters. Low-quality spirulina powders cause die-wall friction and mechanical capping during rapid tablet pressing. Our OEM/ODM particle engineering achieves uniform 80–120 mesh powders, ensuring seamless flowability and dissolution in high-speed rotary presses without synthetic binders.
Driven by the Baltic demand for sustainable skin wellness, regional cosmetics laboratories are utilizing phycocyanin-rich spirulina for topical antioxidant formulations. Its capacity to mitigate oxidative stress and enhance cell viability positions it as an effective raw active in restorative masks, serums, and detoxifying skincare formulations.

Key technical, regulatory, and logistics answers for Lithuanian buyers and supply chain managers.
Yes. Our Organic Spirulina is cultivated in strict accordance with EU organic farming regulations. We provide certified documentation validating organic origins alongside full batch documentation suitable for submission to the State Food and Veterinary Service (VMVT) of Lithuania.
Every commercial consignment includes a lot-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) specifying protein assay, phycocyanin content, loss on drying, ash content, heavy metal testing (ICP-MS), and microbiological analysis. We also provide technical MSDS and allergen statements.
Yes. Through our OEM/ODM infrastructure, we formulate bespoke tablet sizes (typically 250mg, 400mg, or 500mg) without artificial lubricants or binding agents. We also produce homogeneous blends incorporating Chlorella, Acerola extract, or functional mushrooms.
Standard bulk powder MOQ begins at 1 kg for formulation evaluation and pilot validation. Commercial bulk orders typically ship within 5–7 business days via air freight (DDP/CIP Vilnius Airport) or 25–35 days for containerized maritime shipments via Klaipėda port.
