Indonesia is the world’s leading source of tropical seaweeds. Located within a 10 degree range of the equator, the world’s largest archipelago ensures sustainable year round seaweed cultivation. 

Indonesia produces more than 75% of global tropic seaweed and the industry is characterized by short supply chains and state-of-the-art processing units.

This enables the processors of seaweed extracts to guarantee quality, traceability and supply while still maintaining price stability.

It makes Indonesia a key supplier of natural binding solutions to the food, cosmetic and personal care industry all over the world.

Indonesia’s geographical location, straddling the equator, provides perfect conditions for seaweed growth. Warm, year-round temperatures, abundant sunshine, and nutrient-rich waters create a thriving ecosystem for various seaweed species.
