In line with our corporate philosophy of expansion through diversification , Rampex has embarked upon manufacture of Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from a vegetative Marine Algae( Schyzochytrium Sp) and state of art facilities were created with all aseptic features in 2014. This vegetarian DHA is superior to the conventional DHA produced from Flax seeds ( has low DHA content and expensive per kg of comparable production from other sources) or from Fish oil with an unpleasant odour and after taste. DHA from marine algae yields higher percentage of DHA and has no odour or unpleasant taste. With the present trend of health consciousness in present day youth , this type of food supplement is a fillip for nutritional supplementation and in easily available forms like capsules, powder and pre mixes , the consumption is increasing and awareness is catching up.
