Transforming the Chitosan Industry
When our team sets out to develop a process or product we don’t compromise on the principles of green chemistry.
We’re the only commercial-scale manufacturer of chitosan in the USA, because traditional processes produce large chemical waste streams.
Our patent-pending zero-waste process produces the lowest-cost chitosan in the widest range of molecular weights.
OUR PROCESS INNOVATION
Our proprietary process for chitosan extraction is not only substantially lower cost than the traditional process, but is also zero-waste, environmentally friendly, and can produce the widest range of molecular weights.
Our process is the world’s only that allows for the full utilization of crab shells. The co-product that ‘closes the loop’ is natural nitrogen fertilizer made of the non-chitosan organic matter in the waste shell we process.
OUR PRODUCT INNOVATIONS
Our ready-to-use liquid chitosan formulas are optimized to solve specific market problems. Our customers benefit from our novel viscosity modification and crosslinking technologies and our ability to synthesize new biomolecules.
No one knows chitosan better than our team. Contact us to speak with one of our chitosan experts to get the lowest cost and best performing chitosan solution for your application.
FACILITIES
We provide chitosan solutions optimized for your application, as well as private label services at our various facilities.
Our 1.2 acre (~52,000 sq ft) headquarter facility is located in Bellingham, Washington.
Our ~24,000 sq ft facility in Wellford, South Carolina is up and running, enabling fast delivery on both the West and East coasts.
