AgriSea is a Māori-owned family business based in Paeroa which specialises in the manufacture of seaweed products.
They’ve been working with Scion, one of the BPA’s four R&D partners, to take the waste stream from the seaweed industry, apply green chemistry and turn it into nanocellulose – a high-value, high-performing material. This manufacturing process, a compelling demonstration of the circular bio-economy at work, is being done at scale for the first time in Aotearoa New Zealand.
Scion and AgriSea have been working together for several years – but their first connection was a chance encounter. Hear about how they got together here.
