The global chemical industry is based on oil

• Consumers want sustainable and functional alternatives to substitute existing high carbon footprint products.
• 80% of the products of the chemical industry are ultimately made out of crude oil: plastics, paints, cosmetics, glues, fertilisers, you name it.
• Legislation is driving the change from oil-based ingredients to bio-based alternatives (EU Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability E142/2020 and EU Plastic Strategy)

Our blue oceans are green and brown

• Oceans are suffering from human-made excess nutrients.
• This causes harmful algae blooms, which take up oxygen and crowd out the ecosystem.
• By using algae blooms as our raw material, we are removing nutrients from the oceans and turning them into valuable materials traditionally sourced from fossil fuels, climate-sensitive plants and land/water intensive renewable crops.

Origin by Ocean is a biochemical company founded in 2019. We produce algae-based functional ingredients to substitute existing chemicals with high carbon footprints.

Our patented biorefinery process produces valuable bio-based chemicals for use in food, cosmetics, home and personal care and textiles with an addressable market of $10B+.

We are currently in the pre-commercial phase and the first consumer products using our ingredients are already making waves. 

Our company is currently looking for investments to accelerate the industrialisation of our process and products.
