Five goals, one material

Alaagi is built to move the needle on the goals where plastic does the most damage, and where seaweed can do the most good.

SDG 12

Responsible consumption and production

A drop-in replacement for petroleum plastic that composts at end of life, made for the packaging industry's hardest category.

SDG 14

Life below water

Ocean-safe material and a regenerative seaweed supply that heals coastlines rather than clearing them.

SDG 13

Climate action

Seaweed captures carbon as it grows, so every kilogram of Alaagi replaces petroleum and pulls carbon at once.

SDG 09

Industry, innovation and infrastructure

TRL 6 materials science, a dedicated lab, and manufacturing through Scotia Plastics on existing equipment.

SDG 17

Partnerships for the goals

Built with Acadian Seaplants, Cascadia Seaweed, the NRC, the Verschuren Centre, and partners across Canada and the UAE.

Our supply chain

Seaweed from the coastline that plastic hurts most

Most seaweed bioplastics ship their raw material across the Pacific. Ours is grown and harvested in Atlantic Canadian waters, processed in Halifax, and sold to packagers in the same region. The supply chain is as short as the problem is close.

Grown here, not shipped here

Our feedstock comes from regenerative farms along the Nova Scotia coast, with partners like Acadian Seaplants. No land, fresh water or fertilizer, and no ocean freight before it reaches us.

Made in Halifax

Extraction, formulation and pelletizing happen in our Halifax lab, and the resin runs on partner lines like Scotia Plastics without new machinery.

Coastal jobs, coastal benefit

The communities that live with marine plastic are the ones farming the seaweed that replaces it. Scaling Alaagi scales their work.

Regenerative seaweed: fast-growing, carbon-capturing, and farmed on the Atlantic coast.

Where we work

Three hubs, one supply chain

Alaagi runs out of Atlantic Canada and the Gulf, with Europe next. Hover a hub to zoom in.

Filled markers are active operations. Outlined markers are where we are expanding next.

2027 to 2029

Not a company. A new materials ecosystem.

Where Alaagi is headed, year by year. Open a year to see what ships.

  • Scale manufacturing to 1M+ kg per year

    Move from pilot volumes to industrial output with Scotia Plastics and partner lines.

  • Turn letters of intent into multi-year supply agreements

    Thirteen LOIs, including Sobeys and High Liner Foods, become committed volume.

  • Expand into Europe, the Middle East and Asia

    UAE operations already connect Alaagi to Emirates Biotech and European Bioplastics networks.

  • Build regional manufacturing hubs

    Canada, the UAE and Southeast Asia, so material is made close to where it is used.

  • Launch new product lines

    Thermoformable materials, injection-molded components, agricultural films and cosmetic packaging.

  • Create hundreds of green jobs in coastal communities

    A seaweed supply chain that pays coastlines to regenerate.

  • Build the world's first regenerative seaweed-to-bioplastic supply chain

    Global scale, replacing tens of millions of kilograms of petroleum plastic a year.
