How We Help

Plant Based

Naturally derived from marine plants and algae, seaweed hydrocolloids are often used in a wide range of plant-based applications—everything from vegetarian sausage casings to vegan beverages.

Sustainability

Seaweed does not require land, fresh water, pesticides or fertilizers. We are pioneers in harvesting seaweed as efficiently and sustainably as possible, having designed a sustainability program specifically for the hydrocolloid industry .

Our seaweed supports at least four of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.

Alginate is a naturally-occurring food ingredient extracted from edible brown seaweed, and DuPont is the global leader in alginate. In the hands of our globally-strong but locally-present team of experts, alginate can help you bring your most challenging recipes to life in a surprising range of applications.
