Seaweed processing

Conversion of harvested macroalgae (nori, wakame, kelp) into food formats — washing, low-temperature sheet drying, roasting and seasoning for consumer snack and meal products.

Where it's used

Roasted nori snacks, seaweed chips, kelp burgers and umami seasonings turning macroalgae into a mainstream better-for-you food category — dominated by China's multi-billion-yuan 海苔 market, with US and European premium brands riding iodine, omega-3 and clean-label demand.
