Our regenerative business model
We clean oceans by harvesting invasive algae, reducing harmful emissions and unlocking the value of this unused marine biomass.
Our operations support local economies and turn environmental waste into highly profitable, low-carbon ventures.
Our patented biorefinery turns harmful marine biomass into valuable bio-based products, addressing environmental degradation, industrial fossil fuel reliance, and economic challenges.
Every part of the biomass is utilised, with residuals being repurposed into products and materials, capturing carbon.
Our high-value functional bio-based ingredients decarbonise oil-based manufactured goods across industries like cosmetics, textiles and food.
Our ingredients bring functionality and profitability, regulatory compliance, and enhanced market competitiveness, whilst helping manufacturers decrease their carbon emissions.
SARGASSUM (Phaeophyceae) is a brown seaweed that has spread massively. A floating mass of seaweed stretching from the Gulf of Mexico to West Africa is now the biggest seaweed bloom in the world. The vast rafts of it keep sunlight from reaching coral reefs; as it decays, the seaweed releases noxious compounds that harm marine life.
Sargassum is harvested from Caribbean beaches and coasts.
Empowering local algae
harvesters and farmers
Through our regenerative supply chain we can provide livelihoods to coastal entrepreneurs across the world, while clearing eutrophied oceans of polluting nutrients.
We approach the harvesting of algae with a focus on environmental balance and sustainability. Our method supports ocean restoration by reducing nutrient pollution and mitigating the harmful effects of algal blooms.
We work closely with local partners to ensure that our algae sourcing practices respect the environment and provide economic opportunities for coastal communities.
Through our business ecosystem, we also want to provide sidestream work and revenue opportunities for people and businesses, such as fishermen, boat operators, offshore wind park operators, maintenance crews, and so on.
Our patented biorefinery technology turns seaweed into multiple products, in one industrial process.
We use simple and selective chemistry to ensure high quality and efficiency. Recycling chemicals and water minimises waste and maximises impact.
Our golden rule of biorefining is to squeeze out as much value as possible from the used algae feedstock. Every part of the biomass is utilised, with residuals being repurposed into products and materials, capturing carbon.
Our multi-product architecture biorefinery produces six products including the biomass residue from the brown algae in one integrated production process. This allows us to extract the maximum value out of the biomass inputs.
