About BlueOcean

BlueOcean NutraSciences Inc. is a Canadian publicly-listed company whose mission is to develop sustainable products and services from Natural Sources, to improve the lives of its customers. Going forward, the Company's sole focus is commercializing its patent-protected CO2 gas infusion technology license and US PTO CO2 foliar spray, patent pending, for accelerating both indoor and outdoor plant growth.

Dissolved natural CO2 gas in water without bubbles is a new CO2 delivery method for growers to increase yield via targeted CO2 irrigation on plant leaves where all CO2 gas is absorbed. The greenhouse industry has been gassing CO2 to increase plant yields by an average of 33% (B.A. Kimball, Agronomy Journal, V75, September-October 1983) for the past 60 years while foliar spray has been used for the past 50 years. To date, no one has combined CO2 gassing and water.

Targeting dissolved CO2 water onto plant leaves versus CO2 gassing an entire greenhouse to attain a desired CO2 PPM level could also save 50% of CO2 gassing costs and improve worker safety. Addressable markets using dissolved CO2 irrigation water are as follows: 1. $8 Trillion/y global food market of which $340 Billion/y is from greenhouse produce and 2. Up to $50 Billion/y by 2022 for legal global cannabis. No other patent has been issued for applying CO2 to plants via foliar spray irrigation by the US PTO.

BlueOcean's shrimp-oil business and tax losses are being marketed for sale to focus on its CO2 irrigation business, which has no competition. Shrimp-oil products are made from sustainably managed North Atlantic cold-water shrimp shells (the by-product of the cooked and peeled shrimp process) which contains phospholipid bound Omega-3 fatty acids and over 40 times more natural astaxanthin compared to krill oil ingredients.

Shrimp oil's unique nutritional properties allow for numerous health claims across a wide range of markets, including the $4 Billion Omega-3 heart health market, the $9 Billion joint health market and the $10 Billion sports supplement market. BlueOcean currently markets its shrimp oil under three consumer brands: Pure Polar(R) Omega-3 Shrimp Oil, Joint AXTM and Sport AXTM. Products may be purchased online at purepolarlabs.com.
