Challenge : Doing more with Less

“Deforestation and forest degradation … account for nearly 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than the entire global transportation sector and second only to the energy sector.”

Challenge #1: Doing more with Less

High C10 Algae Oil is 8 times more efficient at producing C10 than Palm Kernel Oil

Palm Kernel Oil High C10 Algal Oil

40% Capric (C10)

5% Capric (C10)

Less oil needed to produce the same benefits for consumers Expanding use as companies seek more sustainable alternatives

13

Challenge: Traceability and Sustainability

Current RSPO not satisfactory

Need for scalable production of sustainable and traceable oils able to

functionally replace palm oil

Particularly acute for personal care application is the need for an oil

rich in lauric fatty acids (C12) that is currently mostly sourced from

palm kernel oil

Increasing consumer awareness demands for more sustainable and traceable sources of oils

14

AlgaPūr High Lauric Oil produced by microalgae from sustainable sugars

has a low environmental impact compared to other oils

Low Greenhouse Gas footprint

50% less than palm kernel oil

Low water consumption

7 times less than palm kernel oil

Low land use impact

8 times the oil yield per hectare of palm kernel oil

Early adopters leading the way

Unilever Formulates First Soap Bar Using Sustainable Algal Oils

“Through incorporating Algal Oils into our Lux products…not only do we deliver better products to our consumers, but we also

help the planet in the process.” [Anne Radmacher, Lux Global Brand Vice President]

BASF and Solazyme Launch First Commercial Microalgae-Derived Betaine Surfactant

“Consumer demand for sustainable and innovative surfactants has increased significantly in the home and personal care markets. Combining BASF’s chemistry expertise with

Solazyme’s range of renewable microalgae oils allows us to deliver products that meet this demand.”

[Josef Koester, Director Marketing HPC, BASF North America]

Natura and Solazyme announce partnership

“We are always looking for ingredients from renewable sources and technologies inspired in the nature, targeting low environmental impact processes and high performance solutions.”
