We are a small biotech company that produces microalgae to make food supplements and cosmetics. We have been using Industrial Plankton’s reactor for about 1 year. In the meantime, we call it R2D2. It deserves this name not only because of its appearance, but also because since then the force is with us and our algae production is on a new level. The reactor reduces our working time enormously and gives us the freedom to put the new resources into other areas. It works very reliably and is a real eye-catcher for every visitor. The friendly and always available customer service helps with problems of any kind and has a good sense of humor. – Anonymous German Customer
