Smart Traceability for Fraud-Free Food
HAMTRACE is advancing European dry-cured ham value chains through data-driven authentication and global traceability standards
Harnessing the natural power of microalgae to purify nutrient-rich waters and create new, sustainable ingredients for food, feed, fertilisers and health products.
1. Clean Biotechnology
2. Circular Bioeconomy
What was once a cost becomes a resource. SEAlgaePower transforms microalgal biomass into valuable proteins, lipids, pigments and polysaccharides — advancing circular value chains.
3. Sustainability and Impact
From the North and Mediterranean Seas, diverse microalgae strains are cultivated and optimised to capture nutrients, restore ecological balance and generate measurable environmental benefits.
4. Collaboration and Co-creation
In SEAlgaePower, scientists, industry, policymakers and citizens are working together to shape sustainable blue innovation — driving real-world solutions through shared knowledge and open dialogue.
Our Four Pillars of Blue Innovation
SEAlgaePower is built on four interconnected pillars that turn science into sustainable impact.
Together, these pillars define our approach: from clean technologies and circular design
to measurable environmental and social benefits.
About Our Project
Europe’s premium dry-cured hams are increasingly vulnerable to fraud, mislabelling and counterfeit products.
Up to 10–12% of high-value meat products may be affected by fraud. Traditional traceability tools rely on documentation and QR codes, which can be copied or manipulated.
Small producers often lack access to advanced authentication technologies, which puts heritage, reputation and consumer trust at risk.
Why Current Traceability Falls Short
Today’s systems depend largely on labels, paperwork and QR codes. While useful, these tools can be duplicated and disconnected from the physical product.
To restore trust, Europe needs authentication that combines scientific proof of origin with tamper-proof digital records, linking the physical and digital worlds.

Our Four Pillars of Blue Innovation
SEAlgaePower is built on four interconnected pillars that turn science into sustainable impact. Together, these pillars define our approach: from clean technologies and circular design to measurable environmental and social benefits.
SEAlgaePower is developing microalgae-based technologies that clean nutrient-rich aquaculture and seafood processing waters while creating new, sustainable products for food, feed, fertilisers, and health.
The Power of Microalgae
The fast-growing aquaculture and seafood industries generate large volumes of nutrient-rich process water that is costly to discharge. SEAlgaePower is harnessing the power of microalgae and developing circular, climate-neutral solutions where selected microalgae use these nutrients to grow — cleaning the water while creating valuable biomass.
