Aquaproducts: Promoting Sustainable Marine Bio-Extracts in Southeast Asia

Singapore-based Aquaproducts is leading the charge in up-cycling seafood industry by-products through innovative technology and sustainable practices. With a commitment to establishing a robust and eco-friendly supply chain for marine functional protein, Aquaproducts aims to become a key regional hub in Southeast Asia.

Founded in 2014 by French engineers Thomas Levallois and François Dupuis, Aquaproducts boasts a decade of expertise in marine bio-extracts. The company has forged strong partnerships with industry leaders like Scanbio SAS Norway and Maqpro Biotech Indonesia, reinforcing its position in the sector.

In 2022, Aquaproducts expanded its reach by collaborating with the Althelia Sustainable Ocean Fund to establish Marine Biotech Vietnam (MBV). This hydrolysate factory focuses on producing dry hydrolysate protein powder for the Asian feed and pet food markets. The company is also pursuing collaborations with European biotech firms to develop biopolymers from shrimp shells.

Aquaproducts’ innovative approach centers on the enzymatic hydrolysis of marine by-products to extract proteins and other valuable compounds such as oils, chitin, and chitosan. This method not only ensures sustainable innovation but also valorizes these by-products, transforming them into top-quality marine functional proteins for animal feed and pet food markets.

With quality as a priority at Aquaproducts, the company’s raw materials are sourced exclusively from human-grade processing units and trusted suppliers. Every element undergoes meticulous analysis in their laboratory to meet the highest quality standards, supported by HACCP and GMP certifications.

By utilizing local by-products and enzymatic reactions, Aquaproducts creates valuable products with zero waste and eco-friendly processes. The company’s focus on developing unique products without harsh chemicals or harmful thermal processes aligns with its mission to provide advanced natural solutions for the Asian aqua and livestock feed industries. By optimizing protein extraction from seafood by-products, Aquaproducts maximizes efficiency and resource utilization, helping manufacturers create the best feed from sustainable local ingredients.

Marking a significant milestone, the official opening of the Marine Biotech Vietnam factory is set for June 11, 2024, with a target output capacity of 10,000 metric tons per year. This development underscores Aquaproducts’ commitment to sustainable growth and innovation in the marine bio-extracts industry.
