Our proprietary process upcycles the world’s most regenerative material to create a natural product that’s healthy to use, and healthy for the planet. This high-performance seaweed-based, oil-in-water (O/W) emulsifier is PEG-free and COSMOS approved.
By upcycling Sargassum into eco-friendly products, we help restore marine ecosystems while creating opportunities for local workforce outside of tourism.
The annual Sargassum bloom has grown to 20-30 Megatons in the Caribbean, resulting in:
* Biodiversity loss in coral reef and beach ecosystems + methane emissions
* 35% decline in tourism across the Caribbean, BEFORE the pandemic
Our proprietary green chemistry process creates an oil-in-water (O/W) emulsifier with a very efficient, low-use rate that smoothly blends into your water phase with either hot & cold processes; works with a wide range of emollients; and achieves a smooth and silky texture with minimal oil.
Seaweed doesn’t need land, water, nor added fertilizers to grow – it has everything it needs in the ocean. As such, it is the world’s most regenerative and adaptive plant-based resource.
Brands are increasingly being held to account for how sustainable they are. SeaBalance not only offers a truly fossil free ingredient for clean-label products, but a larger environmentally friendly story that directly links your brand to climate recovery, ocean cleanup, & social impact.
Carbonwave turns seaweed into ultra-sustainable materials that heal the planet and transition to an oil-free future. Our materials replace toxic, petroleum-based products, while creating next-generation alternatives that improve on industry standards while reducing emissions.
