Decameal Shellproducts
In our process, we separate as much shell material as possible so that the flour can be used in feed blends where excessive calcium is unwanted.
This leaves us with a shell powder that contains significant amounts of astaxanthin, chitin, and up to 20% protein.
In the near future, we will focus on extracting these very valuable compounds on a larger scale, with use-cases in a large range of products and sectors.
Our future products from the shells
The main products from the shells will be Chitin, Chitosan, Astaxanthin and Minerals & Protein.
These compounds are potentially valuable in a very broad range of industries such as industrial applications like water treatment, coatings and biodegradable plastics. But also healthcare & beauty additives as replacement for microplastic additives. And even for pharma and human supplements with a broad range of postive effects on human health.
We will be pursuing these applications through our developments, so contact us, if you have an interest in collaborating or just learning about these future developments.
