axafine™

Information

axafine™ is axabio®’s Cold Water Dispersible (CWD) powder, available with 2.5% or 5% natural astaxanthin derived from Haematococcus pluvialis. The natural astaxanthin used in axafine™ is cultivated in Belgium using axabio®’s patented, fully closed photobioreactor technology. This controlled indoor cultivation process enables consistent quality, purity and full traceability from cultivation to finished ingredient. axafine™ has been specifically developed to overcome one of the key formulation challenges associated with astaxanthin: its naturally low water dispersibility. Through microencapsulation, the astaxanthin is protected and transformed into an easy-to-use powder that disperses effectively in cold water while supporting stability and bioavailability. This makes axafine™ a versatile ingredient for a wide range of applications, including functional beverages, powdered drink mixes, dietary supplements and other water-based formulations. For brands looking to incorporate the distinctive benefits of natural astaxanthin into innovative formulations, axafine™ combines premium natural astaxanthin with formulation flexibility, consistent dosing and convenient handling — backed by axabio®’s controlled European production and science-led approach.
