Thank you, AzureRoad, for highlighting innovative companies harnessing the “skincare powerhouse” of regeneratively grown kelp grown right here in the U.S. Journalist Heide Brandes explores the environmental benefits and future of marine beauty - have a read! ⬇️ 🌎
Founder of Azure Road, a digital publication devoted to conscious living. Contributing sustainable lifestyle, travel + wine to Afar, Decanter, Food & Wine, Forbes, SevenFiftyDaily, Wine Enthusiast.
For AzureRoad, Heide Brandes reports on the growth of kelp farming and why this regenerative practice is cleaning up the oceans while transforming beauty. "In the cold, clean waters off Maine’s coast, a quiet beauty revolution is taking place. While seaweed has been making headlines for its potential to reduce methane emissions in cattle and create sustainable food products and bioplastics, innovative companies are discovering another valuable use for this marine resource: beauty products that are both effective and environmentally regenerative."

Notpla raises $25m to replace over 100 million single-use plastics per year with seaweed packaging over the next two years. 🌿
We're excited to announce a significant milestone in Notpla's journey: the successful close of our Series A+ funding round, securing over $25 million in new investment. This marks an important step forward in our mission to replace single-use plastics with sustainable, natural solutions. 🌍 With this support in place we're getting straight to work, advancing the capabilities of our materials and accelerating into new markets where plastic-free solutions are much-needed. Our aim? To replace over 100 million single-use plastics per year with Notpla within the next two years. Since 2014, we've been reimagining packaging from nature's perspective. This backing proves the growing demand for truly sustainable alternatives and the potential of our seaweed-based technology.
