As a leading omega-3 manufacturer, Solutex empowers the dietary supplement, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries to create unique products that advance human health.

Innovative biolipid processing technologies for unrivaled quality & purity

Solutex’s Flutex™ platform encompasses a combination of green chemistry technologies to concentrate, separate, and purify omega-3 fatty acids. Separation techniques utilizing CO2 in a supercritical state combined with Cleantex® deodorization and purification is an environmental-friendly alternative to conventional concentration processes.

Our facility expansion in Spain, driven by a steady focus on future innovation, resulted in the first completely vertically integrated Omega-3 manufacturing facility, working from crude oil to obtain premium concentrations up to 97% EPA. This expansion supports our commitment to providing extensive customization of EPA:DHA ratios to accommodate client expectations for new products and options targeting condition specific formulas as the market continues to grow and evolve.


Highly concentrated plant-based products

Specializing in vegan omega-3, our technology expansion enables Solutex the flexibility to provide an exclusive supercritical technology line, specific to micro-algae concentrations – one of our planet’s most sustainable and renewable sources of omega-3. Omegatex® Plant-based Omega-3 represents a giant step forward in sustainable innovation.

Another product in our algae portfolio offering the most highly advanced omega-3 ingredients sourced from the Schizochytrium species of micro-algae includes MaGOmega®, a patented vegan Monoglyceride (MAG) form manufactured using innovative enzymatic transesterification technology. The unique composition of MaGOmega® promotes bioavailability, allowing it to auto-emulsify and facilitate absorption of EPA and DHA in the body.

Driving sustainable innovation

Inspired by a commitment to provide value beyond ingredients, Solutex leverages our pioneering biotechnology and scientific expertise to fuel sustainable innovation that drives the future of human nutrition, while respecting the resources supplied by nature.

Our patented ingredient, Lipinova®, concentrated in Specialized Pro-resolving Mediators (SPMs), is a unique SPM-based solution supporting the development of next generation immune-nutrition products. As natural metabolites of EPA and DHA, SPMs are bio-active mediators that assist the immune system’s natural response, encouraging resolution of the inflammatory process.

Our manufacturing operations rely on supercritical CO2 technology and operate under the rules defining green chemistry with adherence to circular economy principles. Solutex was recently recognized by the Spanish Local Authorities and awarded for excellence in good practices and actions in support of circular economy principles. This award reinforces our commitment to sustainable innovation through green chemistry processes, and optimization of resources and material lifecycles including recycling water, using biofuels, and efficient use of omega-3 side streams with zero waste. Solutex is proud of the collaborative effort by our global team for being respectful of the environment to ensure a more sustainable future.

The team at Solutex is excited to attend Vitafoods Asia! Visit our booth in the GOED Resource Center at G23F to learn more about sustainable innovation in omega-3 fatty acids and the possibilities of adding new products to your portfolio.
