Icecal-L NG is a high-quality powder from calcified algae, suitable for nutraceutical products. The calcified algae are plant-based and thus suitable for both vegan and vegetarian products. Icecal-L NG is certified organic. Icecal-NG undergoes a more thorough cleaning, sterilization, and milling process than its counterpart, Icecal-FG, to achieve lower TPC values and lower average particle sizes. A more robust testing regimen also allows us to guarantee higher magnesium content.
The Biogenic Minerals team has developed its production process to comply with all EU regulations on supplements for human consumption. During production, no solvents are used, and no chemicals are added to the final product. This ensures that the natural composition* of the calcified algae remains intact.
