Saccharina latissima
Product description
Saccharina latissima, commonly known as sugar kelp, is a large brown seaweed species of the family Lami-nariaceae. It thrives in the stable, cold and nutrient-rich waters of the Faroe Islands and more generally through-out the North Atlantic and the North Pacific Oceans. Throughout its growth, Saccharina latissima accumulates a variety of highly nutritious and economically significant compounds of great relevance for food, feed, and pharmaceutical industries.
At Ocean Rainforest, we care for our Saccharina latissima from seed to product. The sugar kelp is seeded on lines and deployed during autumn at our unique ocean cultivation units in pristine waters. Due to our specific location in the North Atlantic Ocean, we can harvest from April to November.
Our spring harvest is typically preferred by food producers whereas the autumn harvest is of greater interest to biorefineries and the nutraceutical industry as the seaweed contains higher levels of laminarin, beta-glucan and fucoidan and has a lower mineral content.
