A word from the expert
“The company is born from a passion for sea and health. This is why we decided to create Polaris: a company that makes the valorization of marine lipids rich in Omega-3 possible.”
We have set up distillation processes (purification, concentration and stabilization), as well as enzymatic processes, enabling us to obtain oils with a high EPA & DHA content.
Today, thanks to our research, we are now able to offer oils derived from a new source of Omega-3, which will be a real line of development for the next few years: microalgae.

A bit of history

1994 : A passion
POLARIS is born from a passion for the sea and health. On this basis, the founders chose to valorize the functional lipids Omega-3 EPA/DHA from marine co-products. The R&D work led to a 1st international patent on enzymatic enrichment (or fatty acids concentration).

2016 : Omegavie Algae
Always in search of new innovations and thanks to the expertise of its research and development department, Polaris launches into microalgae oils and creates "Omegavie Algae".

-
2018 : Sensory®
The "Sensory®" concept was born from a reflection on the organoleptic performance of oils and the undesirable taste or smell of fish oils. Sensory guarantees very high organoleptic quality in Omegavie oils , i.e. no impact on the taste or odour of the finished products.
