- Slide: 1
- 1) Kelp Farms
- We are sourcing brown Algae for the polymer “alginate’. It is fast growing and does not require freshwater or fertilizer. It can be grown quickly and does not require any maintenance. . We take the whole kelp leaf in its raw form and leave the base for regrowth.
- Slide: 2
- 2) Dry before shipping
- The plants must be dried before shipping for better transport
- Slide: 3
- 3) Shipping
- Plants are shipped to production facility to be later on processed. Shipment does not require keeping the kelp alive.
- Slide: 4
- 4) Industry Facility
- The facility will process raw kelp through extraction, purification, and treatment, converting it into a sustainable bioplastic material. This involves chemical and mechanical processes that transform the kelp into a usable material for various applications.
- Slide: 5
- 5) Grinding Industrial Vat
- An industrial grinding machine will be used to convert the kelp into a fine powder, preparing it for further processing into a usable material.
- Slide: 6
- 6) Powder of kelp
- This is what the overall powder would look like
- Slide: 7
- 7) Mixing the kelp
- The materials required to perform the manufacturing only involve the raw material itself, water and heat to mold and transform the kelp into the bio-plastic form.
- Slide: 8
- 8) Thermal molding
- By utilizing thermal molding, we can produce a wide range of final products in the desired shapes, including plates, cups, utensils, and plastic bags. This process allows for precise shaping and customization to meet various design needs.
