Vivagro strengthens its marine-based active ingredients value chain with the acquisition of Techsealab

In 2026, Vivagro reached a major milestone in its development by becoming the majority shareholder of Techsealab, a family-owned company based in Brittany's region, specializing in marine biotechnology and a long-standing partner of the Group. This strategic partnership strengthens Vivagro's expertise in marine-based active ingredients and brings unique know-how covering the entire process, from the harvesting of French Ascophyllum nodosum seaweed and cold-extraction technologies to the formulation and commercialization of bio-based solutions.

Securing Strategic Marine Assets

The acquisition of Techsealab enables Vivagro to strengthen its control of high-value natural assets that are central to the development of its biostimulation solutions in support of its Physioprotech programs. This expertise is built on an in-depth understanding of marine resources, their agronomic properties, and their valorisation to enhance plant performance.

The addition of Techsealab’s technologies and marine extracts also broadens Vivagro’s portfolio of seaweed-based biostimulant solutions, creating new opportunities for both current and future product development and market expansion.

Mastering the Value Chain

Through the integration of Techsealab, Vivagro extends its control across the entire value chain, from marine resources to finished products. This integration helps secure supplies through a locally sourced French origin, guarantees the quality and traceability of raw materials, and promotes unique local expertise rooted in the Breton coastline.

Already recognized as a provider of bio-based agricultural solutions, Vivagro is expanding its expertise by mastering the production of “Made in France” marine-based active ingredients, strengthening its autonomy, innovation capacity, and quality control.

Beyond supplying finished agricultural solutions, Vivagro is now also positioned as a producer and supplier of marine-derived raw materials and active ingredients for third-party partners, opening new business opportunities across multiple markets.
