Bioplastics & Other Seaweed-Based Products

Enabling Innovators by Supplying Seaweed Biomass for Bioplastics, and Various Seaweed-Based Products.

Communicate a fully traceable and sustainable supply chain for your seaweed-based products, starting with responsibly grown and harvested marine algae from farms in Tasmania and select regions around the world.

Seaweed is a highly versatile material with applications across food, nutraceuticals, biopackaging, and regenerative agriculture. It’s also gaining ground as a powerful input for methane-reduction strategies in livestock systems.

Australia is home to a growing wave of innovators working with seaweed-based materials. Companies like Kelpy and Uluu are developing sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics, using marine biomass to create biopackaging and consumer goods that reduce reliance on fossil fuels. Their breakthroughs show the potential of seaweed as a foundation for circular, ocean-positive design.

When cultivated with environmental integrity at its core, using low-impact farming methods, seaweed enhances local biodiversity, improves water quality, and contributes to regenerative ocean practices. This ensures your end products are not only functional but also aligned with growing consumer demand for transparency and ecological responsibility.

By supplying high-quality biomass, we enable partners to create innovative, nature-based solutions for the future of packaging,  food, farming, and climate resilience.

We Specialise in the Seamless Development and Delivery of Impactful Seaweed Projects from Inception to Realisation.​

Next Wave Seaweed provides location-dependent project evaluation, project management and hands-on project delivery to allow our partners to leverage the power of seaweed to restore marine environments, sequester carbon, use biomass grown for plastic alternatives and other seaweed-based products and assist aquaculture companies in meeting global protein requirements.
