Pioneering Solutions for Successful and Sustainable Microalgae Cultivation
Microalgae are a sought-after resource for the production of food supplements, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and animal feed. They are also increasingly used in environmental technologies such as carbon sequestration and wastewater treatment. Like all other plants, they photosynthesize, converting sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into carbohydrates and oxygen. Microalgae, including cyanobacteria, are rich in essential proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, and anti-inflammatory substances such as astaxanthin and other vital nutrients. These vegan products, which meet halal quality standards, are in high demand on the global market and command high prices.
Subitec has developed an industrial production system designed for the high-yield cultivation of microalgae on a large scale. The 24/7 indoor system is infinitely expandable and can be optimally adapted to changing demand and market trends thanks to its easily customizable parameters. The modular system is a plug-and-play solution that requires minimal installation time and enables immediate production. Compared to other systems, it uses less water and takes up less space.
For over two decades, Subitec has been a pioneer in sustainable industrial microalgae cultivation, offering cutting-edge technology "Made in Germany." With over 200 installations worldwide, Subitec's microalgae production systems are used in research and industry across Europe, North and South America, Africa, and Asia.

We are innovators and pioneers in vertical farming, leading the way in scalable food production to provide a more resilient and sustainable way to feed the world.

All our produce is grown without the use of any pesticides, herbicides and insecticides which damage the local environment.
Today we’re growing leafy greens, in the future, we’ll be growing soft fruit, rice, wheat, soy and peas. And because these are all grown with vertical farming methods, it gives us better food security, better food consistency and better food quality.
