Stage 1 - Completed
Sargassum R&D
We have already successfully built and operated a test farms on the island of St. Vincent. We have several remaining knowledge gaps, which we will fill in a three-month extended trial. The farm will be constructed using our proprietary barrier technology.
Location
St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG)
Outcomes
Prove year-round stable stock
Measure impact of farm on dissolved oxygen and pH of water in and around farm
Characterization of fish biodiversity
Definitive calculation on growth rates
Learn how Sargassum behaves
Develop a method to domesticate it
Develop both floating and anchored farms that keep Sargassum healthy and growing
We recently published a peer-reviewed scientific paper in Frontiers in Marine Science focused on our Aquafarm system and its environmental impact: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/marine-science/articles/10.3389/fmars.2026.1831822/full

Stage 2 - In Progress
Go to the Caribbean and help hotels keep their beaches clean of influxing Sargassum. We will establish our first five small-scale SeaClear farms in partnership with a hotel. This will involve building a 1,000 metre barrier to catch Sargassum in a channel where it regularly influxes, before moving the seaweed to a stationary farm nearby. The Sargassum can then be used in industry for bio-based products such as biostimulants, biochar and other bio-materials.
Location
Caribbean and Mexico
Outcomes
Test operations and develop training methods for scaling up
Conduct detailed 3rd party environmental impact assessments
Build the demand for Sargassum derived products
Provide a better solution to an existing problem, for a similar price hotels currently pay, and avoid putting Sargassum in landfill
We will turn a profit as a company with just 5 SeaClear installations
Grow partnerships with offtake agreements for Biochar, Biostimulants, Bioplastics and more
Once we have proven all elements of our SeaClear farms we will scale up to build our first 60 paddocks. Will will have operational sales channels for offtake of the feedstock for green industries.
Location
Scale up across the Caribbean region
Outcomes
60,000 m2 (60 paddocks), nearshore and anchored in the Caribbean
Start to supply bigger markets for Sargassum, funded by investors (each farm becomes an SPV) so still low risk to Seafields
Achieve profitability at a site level
Build blueprint for scale
Start to develop licensing model from 10 farms onwards
