Marigot Ltd
Marigot Ltd. specialises in the development and production of natural mineral products for use in foods, beverages and dietary supplements. Based in County Cork, Ireland the company produces the Aquamin™ range of products. Aquamin is a unique, natural, seaweed-derived mineral source, rich in calcium, magnesium and 74 other trace minerals.
Backed by extensive scientific research, Aquamin offers a multitude of benefits which make it the natural choice for enhancing the nutritional profile of a wide range of foods and beverages. Its unique, porous, honeycomb structure ensures it does not adversely affect end product taste or texture as it is not chalky, bitter or dry. Several products make up the Aquamin range, including:
Aquamin F - can be used to boost the mineral content of cereals, pasta, baked products, processed meats, ice cream and confectionery.
Aquamin S - containing a high level of calcium, Aquamin S is designed to enhance the nutritional profile of difficult-to-fortify low pH systems, such as juice-based products and frozen desserts.
Aquamin TG - a granulated natural mineral source, Aquamin TG is also produced from mineralised seaweed (Lithothamnion sp.) with added unmodified maize (corn) starch to act as a granulating agent making it particularly effective when used in dietary supplements.
Aquamin Soluble - enhances the nutritional profile of clear drinks such as sports drinks, healthy beverages and flavoured waters while avoiding the unappealing cloudy appearance which can compromise consumer enjoyment.
Calcilife - comprising the highly bioavailable natural mineral source Aquamin and NutraFlora® (sold in Europe under the Actilight® brand name), CalciLife delivers increased calcium absorption, leading to improved bone health, enhanced gut health and a strong immune system.
