About us

Our story

VAXA means grow in Icelandic.

We grow superior microalgae in optimized conditions powered by Iceland’s geothermal ecosystem.

Our proprietary cultivation platform combines renewable energy, advanced photobioreactors and circular production systems to grow better microalgae with lower environmental impact.

The high-value functional ingredients we produce help improve products for people, animals, and aquaculture, while enabling supply chain decarbonization.

By redefining how functional ingredients are produced, we’re helping build a healthier and more sustainable future for people, animals, and the planet.

We grow life. Better.
