We transform one of Canada's most abundant natural renewable resources into high-quality seaweed extracts for a wide range of industries.
As the seaweed industry continues to grow at rapid speed, so too does the demand for seaweed and seaweed extracts.
Companies around the world, especially here in Canada, are keen on using these unique, highly versatile materials, but are limited by a severe lack of global supply chain infrastructure. A complete lack of local processing and manufacturing solutions prevents these materials from penetrating the North American market.
We're on a mission to change that.
All of the world's farmed seaweed is still completely dominated by Asia, where expensive shipping costs as well as labour-intensive, inefficiently designed farms result in excessively high prices for commercial seaweed.
As a result, commercial production of any downstream product is still incredibly limited, if not completely impossible, in many areas around the world.
Standard extraction processes for producing seaweed extracts at scale require the use of significant amounts of chemical solvents.
These chemicals are extremely harmful to the environment and make the production of these extracts costly and inefficient.
We're developing breakthrough technologies that allow us to cultivate seaweed at scale more cheaply and more efficiently than anyone else in the industry.
By automating much of the cultivation process as well as developing an entirely new, more optimized farm system, we are pioneering the shift from expensive artisanal seaweed cultivation to scalable commercial production.
We've developed a new way to produce high-in-demand seaweed extracts in one streamlined process that unlike other countries, does not require the use of any environmentally harmful chemical solvents and is entirely carbon-free.
By leveraging Canada's abundance of natural renewable resources, we can perform these materials for cheaper and in greater volumes than any other competitor out there.
All while sequestering greenhouse gases, helping restore and support local marine habitats, and creating reliable and long-lasting career opportunities for communities all across the country.
Alongside our comprehensive team of experts, we are working to scale the production of seaweed-based biomaterials to meet rapidly growing demand in industries that need them most.
By leveraging the advantageous geography of Canada, we intend to solidify our position as global leaders in the large-scale production of biomaterials, and maximize the value of our country's natural resources by pioneering the development of much-needed environmentally friendly solutions.
We're going to radically disrupt the status-quo in the material science industry by creating quality products for our customers, all while driving positive change in the world around us. Right when it's needed most.
We want to help build a strong and reliable circular economy for Canada by turning locally-sourced, renewable resources like seaweed into sustainable products for a wide range of industries.
Our goal is to provide our customers with high-quality materials that can be composted after use, forming a closed-loop product cycle to help minimize waste while generating downstream value for Canadian farmers.
