Amidst the ocean’s traitorous tidal zone, a select few survive.
In this extreme habitat, the Porphyridium sp. red microalgae flourishes, thanks to an ancient survival secret uncovered by more than 25 years of research.
A sulfated polysaccharide is emitted from Porphyridium cells to their proximate surroundings, creating a unique protective environment. Through a wealth of research and expertise, Frutarom brings Alguard™ - a purified porphyridium polysaccharide, for the same protection of your skin's youth and beauty.
Through extensive R&D, led by renowned Prof. Arad, a patented algae growth process was developed in order to bring the benefits of the protective polysaccharide to our customers. Algae are cultivated in a controlled environment, in artificial sea water, utilizing only nutrients and minerals for robust growth.
Algae are exposed to unique desert climate conditions in specially designed sleeves. Stimulated by the intense sunlight and unique climate, the algae utilize nutrients and minerals for the natural production of the protective polysaccharide shield.
The algae grow in marvelous red colors, and the viscosity of the water is monitored rather than the growth itself. Alguard™ is then purified at the point of maximal viscosity and polysaccharide secretion.
A physical purification of the protective polysaccharide follows the natural growth process. The polysaccharide is purified without the use of any additives, reagents or solvent, to bring you the all-natural Alguard™.
