Drying & baling

Low-temperature drying that keeps the nutrients and the colour.

Low and slow

We dry below 40 °C so the blades keep their colour, their nutrients, and the savoury-sweet umami that makes kelp worth eating. Fast heat kills all three.

Then the bales

Dried product is compressed into bales and logged with the line it came from — every bale traceable back to a specific rope in a specific bay.
