The group's products are extracted from flaxseeds, a plentiful and non-animal source of omega-3.
Such products will include ingredients for making and/or fortifying commercial foods such as bread, noodles, juices, yogurt and cheese.
The firm said that previously manufacturing was by way of a batch system, which was expensive, problematic and outdated.
"The company has acquired a continuous process manufacturing system bringing efficiency, computer monitoring and control with remote consultancy quality readout," it said in Wednesday’s regulatory statement.
"Moreover, the main manufacturing unit is scalable, with features of additional units added vertically and/or adjacently.
"In this way additional production can be added in the same location or new locations in Canada or other countries in a very efficient manner. It is also possible to have a dedicated line for a single customer enabling customer features or monitoring," it added.
