Product Development

Seaweed and micro-algae are compelling ingredients for a variety of applications and industries. By combining different species, you can bring natural products to the market with specific functional and nutritional properties. However, integrating algae into product lines is not without its hurdles. As each type of algae is different, businesses must navigate challenges around inclusion rates, formats, consistent quality, supply reliability, and product safety.

Recognizing these complexities, we have partnered with The Crop Project to offer specialized product development consulting services for seaweed and micro-algae. We also offer ready-to-incorporate ingredients that your product developers can test formulations.
