Astaxanthin is most commonly found in microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis which is the primary diet of aquatic animals such as salmon, flamingos, shrimp, lobster, crab, etc. thus giving them their rich red/pink pigment. PIVEG extracts this natural pigment for application in the nutritional supplement, cosmetic, and pet health industries.
