Oxzo

About Oxzo

Oxzo is a Chilean company founded in 2010 that provides technological solutions for oxygenation, aeration, and ozonation for the global aquaculture industry. The company has developed patented technology to enhance productivity, animal welfare, and environmental sustainability in fish farming operations. Oxzo operates in Chile, Canada, and Norway, serving salmon producers and the shrimp market.

The company's offerings include fully automated systems for producing oxygen, air, and ozone for both sea-based and land-based aquaculture. Their products include automated pontoons (Oxymar), mobile oxygen generation units (Oxymovil), and nanobubble technology for oxygen diffusion. These solutions are designed to increase production efficiency, reduce fish mortality, and improve water quality. For instance, their systems have been shown to increase biomass by 5-10%, reduce costs by up to 5%, and lower fish mortality by over 24% in Chilean salmon farms. In Norway, the technology helps address the challenge of sea lice. The company also provides solutions for seabed remediation (Hiperox) and sanitization using ozone.

Oxzo's business model includes a service-based approach that can eliminate initial investment for clients, positioning the company as a strategic partner. In October 2024, Altis Principal Investments acquired a 35% minority stake in Oxzo. This was followed in December 2025 by a US$25 million strategic investment led by S2G Investments, a firm connected to Lukas Walton, grandson of Walmart's founder, which acquired a 15% stake. These investments are aimed at accelerating the company's international expansion.
