Our Product
Our work addresses environmental concerns associated with the dumping of crustacean shell waste by re-designating this as a valuable by-product.
At Ocean Extracts, we process, stabilize, and extract valuable, natural substances such as chitin, chitosan, and glucosamine from crustacea shells. Using lobster, crab, and shrimp material that would otherwise be discarded, we create a ‘meal’ product that has current and potential applications in the fields of biomedicine, nutrition, food processing, pharmacology, microbiology, agriculture, and cosmetics.
This sustainably sourced product is also all natural, organic, and contains no additives.
