Olmix Group: The preferred partner of farmers for agro-ecological transition

Algae are a key raw material from which, through various steps of innovations and associated with clay and trace elements, Olmix develops concrete solutions for worldwide agricultural transition towards better practices based on products known for their efficiency, demonstrated scientifically.
We bring natural solutions to farmers to improve plants’ health and nutrition and to breeders to improve animals' health and welfare. It enables to produce with a more respectful and a positive impact on the environment, with less use of synthetic chemical products while in capacity to feed the world population and to ensure farmers or breeders a decent living.
Through our ranges of innovative products, both under the form of final products or ingredients, and with the collaboration of distributors and integrators, we demonstrate that there is a way to reconcile economic and environmental performances in agriculture.

From R&D to industrial processes
Olmix Group’s expertise in industrial processes is key to successfully launching effective, financially viable products. The group has a 600 m2 pilot plant for developing new technological processes such as micronisation, different types of extraction and complexation reactions, in particular to create new materials blending trace elements, clays and algae. The seven Olmix Group production sites follow the HACCP system for food safety management.
Olmix Group's three main resources:
Clay minerals
Understanding clay minerals and their uses is a science in its own right, involving many varieties, such as sepiolite, kaolinite, and bentonites.
Trace elements
As pure minerals, trace elements are essential nutrients for living organisms, in very small quantities.
Algae
Algae are an exceptionally varied source of nutrients.
