OUR MATERIALS
Our first biomaterials are seaweeds in the family of sugar kelp, finger kelp and sea lettuce (Laminaria Saccharina, Laminaria Digitata & Ulva Fenestrata).
Pre-orders will open in November for the harvest season of spring 2025. Materials are available in bulk seaweed, nanoseaweed as well as fractions and formulations. Get in touch via info@manateebiomaterials.com to secure your order. Development projects together with strategic partners are prioritised.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT
We continuously push the frontiers of ocean-based biomaterials through our R&D programme. Our focus areas are on spore development, cultivation & harvest optimization, processing & refinery, and developing a seaweed bank.
OCEAN-BASED BIOMATERIALS
Covering over 70% of the earth’s surface, the ocean has a tremendous potential for our resources of tomorrow.
Ocean-based biomaterials encompass a wide range of substances, from bioplastics derived from seaweed to biopolymers extracted from marine organisms like chitin and collagen. These materials possess unique properties that make them valuable across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, textiles, packaging, and construction.
