MISSION

ORGANICOCEAN is specialized in the development, manufacturing and commercialization of marine and seaweed-based biostimulant products for agriculture and horticulture. We are committed to sustainable development through the scientific valorization of renewable marine biomasses and fisheries by-products and through the development of «GREEN» extraction process.

Our slogan « Blue Note, Green Symphony! » illustrates the benefits brought by the low application rates of our marine biostimulant products on plant development.



EXPERTISE & QUALITY

Our company is integrated from seaweed harvest to final product packaging. Our production facilities are operated by a team of scientists and specialized mecanics. Our quality control system ensures batch-to-batch product conformity. ORGANICOCEAN possesses over 10 years of know-how in extraction process development and valorization of marine bioactive compounds.



LOCATION

ORGANICOCEAN is located in the maritime region of the lower St-Lawrence River in the Province of Quebec, Canada. This strategic location ensures access to optimal volume of fresh marine raw materials. Headquarters and research laboratory are located in Rimouski; seaweed’s processing facilities are established at L’Isle Verte.



SEAWEED HARVEST

Our products are mainly manufactured from the brown seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum. This specie grows in the cold waters of the littoral coasts of Quebec (Canada). ORGANICOCEAN holds a seaweed harvest permit on the south shore of the lower St-Lawrence Estuary, from Kamouraska to Cap-à-l’Aigle.

The harvest is made at low tide from June to October in compliance with environmental and resource conservation guidelines. Seaweeds are manually cut at a minimum of 15 cm from the foot. We follow a three-year cycle for harvest area rotation. As soon as harvested, seaweeds are dried on-site in greenhouses to ensure optimal preservation of the fertilizing properties. The biochemical and microbiological quality of the lower St-Lawrence River’s cold water is a guarantee of ORGANICOCEAN seaweed purity.
