Sustainable production
Sustainability is one of the core pillars guiding our company. Across our entire production chain, we prioritize methodologies characterized by a low carbon footprint, from the careful sourcing of raw materials to the upcycling of by-products into new solutions.
Seaweed Sourcing
Our sustainable production cycle starts with carefully chosen seaweed suppliers, prioritising local ones to reduce transport emissions. We use abundant, resilient species to protect marine ecosystems and ensure continuous production. Through strict traceability protocols, we monitor the origin, environmental conditions, transport, storage, documentation, and certification of all raw materials. This guarantees that all seaweeds meet the highest safety, ethical, sustainability, and quality standards.
Bioactivity Extraction
We employ a range of green extraction methods to obtain bioactive compounds from seaweed using sustainable solvents, which are designed for reusability and enable the subsequent repurposing of biomass. We are committed to maximising compound recovery, employing multiple extraction techniques to ensure that we harness the full potential of every seaweed batch.
Biorefinery & Upcycling
Minimizing waste at every stage, we actively upcycle by-products into new ingredients, ensuring that no part of the biomass is discarded. This biorefinery approach allows us to extract multiple high-value compounds from the same raw material, unlocking new applications across industries, from cosmetics to nutraceuticals, pet care, and agriculture. Our cross-industry strategy enhances the impact of our marine resources while promoting a circular economy.
UN Sustainable Development Goals
We are deeply committed to advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) through every facet of our business. We actively contribute to:
Good Health and Well-Being: By developing natural, bioactive ingredients that promote human health and wellness.
Responsible Consumption and Production: By implementing sustainable sourcing, green processing, and full biomass valorisation strategies.
Life Below Water: By protecting marine biodiversity through responsible harvesting, traceability, and minimal environmental impact practices.
Through our science-driven, responsible innovation, we are determined to create a future where marine resources are preserved and leveraged sustainably for generations to come.
