Plnktn is ontstaan vanuit de overtuiging dat de voeding- en supplementen industrie eenvoudiger, verantwoorder en transparanter moet kunnen. Ons antwoord? Algen – de oorsprong van al het leven op aarde en een ongeëvenaarde bron van voedingsstoffen. Wij geloven in de kracht van algen als een natuurlijk en duurzaam alternatief voor veel bestaande voedselbronnen. Zo zijn algen bijvoorbeeld één van de belangrijkste bronnen van Omega-3, waardoor de vis in het proces kan worden overgeslagen. Vaker kiezen voor algen, zou in dit geval zo’n 17 miljard kilo visvangst voor visolie kunnen besparen. Het is onze missie om algen het verdiende podium te geven. Met onze supplementen maken we algen toegankelijk in dagelijkse routines. We laten zien hoe deze voedingsbron kan worden ingezet voor maatschappelijke gezondheid (hallo, gezonde darmen!) en klimaatimpact. We maken bewuste, duurzame keuzes in elke stap van onze keten. Van de duurzame kweek van algen tot de minimalistische verpakkingen van algenkarton. Voel de kracht van algen. Plnktn.
