Nutrex Hawaii
Nutrex Hawaii was founded in Kailua-Kona in 1990 by microalgae expert Dr. Gerald Cysewski. A leading expert in microalgae, he has one simple mission: to make the benefits of microalgae available to everyone in the best possible way. And he has succeeded, as Nutrex is the only producer to grow the superior Hawaiian Spirulina strain entirely organically, without pesticides or other chemicals. All this takes place on the sunny coast of Hawaii, where ideal conditions produce microalgae of unrivalled quality. No wonder this is one of our favourite brands. Read on to find out why Nutrex Hawaii is such a good fit for Morgen is Nu.
What we love about Nutrex Hawaii is how they capture the power of nature . Their spirulina has been growing under the Hawaiian sun for almost 40 years, in clear ocean water filtered through lava rock. No pollution, no unnecessary additives, just pure nutrition from nature. Their special drying technique preserves everything that makes these algae so powerful. This fits perfectly with our approach to health: natural, pure and focused on quality. That is why you will find Nutrex Hawaii in our range.

About Nutrex Hawaii
The Nutrex microalgae farm is on Hawaii's Kona coast. This unique location offers perfect conditions for growing spirulina and astaxanthin. The sunny climate and pure ocean water allow microalgae to thrive here.
With more than 30 years of innovation and a strong commitment to sustainability, the brand has become one of the leading producers of natural microalgae products.
What makes Nutrex Hawaii so unique?
- The Nutrex Hawaii farm is in one of the sunniest locations in the world, allowing microalgae to grow continuously for 12 months of the year.
- BioSecure Zone: The only microalgae farm in the world where the use of pesticides and genetically modified organisms is completely prohibited. This guarantees a pure and safe product.
- The algae are grown in 100% drinkable filtered water sourced from an underground aquifer. Deep ocean water from a depth of 600 metres is also added to supply the spirulina with valuable trace elements.
- Ocean Chill Drying™ technique: This advanced drying process prevents oxidation and preserves nutritional value. Spirulina is dried in just 3 to 7 seconds, preserving all its vitamins and antioxidants as effectively as possible.
How Nutrex Hawaii grows its microalgae
The way Nutrex Hawaii grows spirulina and astaxanthin is crucial to the purity and nutritional value of its products. The algae are grown in open ponds filled with pure filtered water and enriched with deep ocean water. This ensures that the spirulina contains 94 different minerals and trace elements that also occur naturally in the ocean.
After harvesting, the spirulina is processed using the Ocean Chill Drying™ technique. This method minimises oxidation and prevents damage to carotenoids, enzymes and other nutrients. By drying the algae quickly and packaging them immediately, the products stay as fresh as they were on the day of harvest. With these innovative techniques, Nutrex Hawaii has set an industry standard and continues to work on improving its production methods.
Sustainability at Nutrex Hawaii
Sustainability is an important part of Nutrex Hawaii's business philosophy. The company actively works to minimise its environmental impact while producing high-quality products.
One way Nutrex Hawaii does this is by making efficient use of renewable energy. A large-scale solar energy project was launched in 2014, and thousands of solar panels now provide a substantial share of its energy supply. This has reduced CO₂ emissions by hundreds of tonnes a year.
Nutrex Hawaii also uses a smart water management system. Most of the water used is recycled and reused in the growing ponds, keeping waste to a minimum. This contributes to efficient, environmentally friendly production. Growing spirulina itself is also exceptionally sustainable. It produces 20 times more protein per hectare than soya or meat and uses up to 10 times less water. This makes spirulina one of the most environmentally friendly food sources in the world.
Finally, Nutrex Hawaii is a member of the Kuleana Green Business Program, an initiative that promotes sustainable and ethical business practices. This underlines its commitment to both the environment and the community. Through these efforts, Nutrex Hawaii shows that it is possible to produce a high-quality product in a way that is good for both us and the planet.
