organic seaweeds

the ocean’s superfood

Our organic seaweeds are responsibly sourced from the cold Arctic waters of the Lofoten archipelago in Norway. These fast moving, turbulent waters create a clean, nutrient rich environment where seaweed can flourish.

These unique waters provide the foundation needed for the seaweeds to grow abundantly, packed with nutrients yet low in contaminants.

Seaweed is suitable for use as an ingredient in almost any meal, food product or dietary supplement. It can be used as a natural taste enhancer and is particularly popular as a source of iodine.
