Acadian Seaplants Limited services

Effective preservation of any natural resource relies on comprehensive, up-to-date information. Using the world-leading technical resources at our disposal, Acadian Seaplants achieves a comprehensive understanding of the seaweed stock, its distribution and its overall health.

Any organization that operates in coastal ecosystems has an important role to play in their preservation. Changes to ecosystem structures and functions can have rippling effects, so it’s important for our Marine Scientists to ensure the ongoing health and integrity of the ecosystems where we operate. We monitor how changes in algal biomass or canopy structure impact invertebrates, fish and other marine fauna. When assessing the harvest’s potential impact, we often partner with local research institutions to evaluate and validate the minimal impact of the harvest on these organisms.

Data collection is second nature to our Resource Management Team, and we use that data to monitor and maximize the sustainability of our harvest. At our landing sites, we keep detailed records of daily landings and scale harvest weights to control the harvest within specified limits – those pre-determined by our Resource Scientists. Each year, we report to governmental partners on the successes, challenges and opportunities in the areas we harvest, ensuring that our precious marine resources remain available for generations.

How do you maintain the integrity of a pristine natural resource? By settling for nothing less than the exceptional. Acadian Seaplants has staked our reputation on the quality of our products and full customer satisfaction from the very beginning. We intend to uphold that level of excellence as we grow, continuing to build a world-class quality assurance team and develop a rigorous Global Quality System (GQS) model that rivals industry and  lobal standards. Here is how we fulfill our commitment to singular quality and continuous improvement at every stage of our processes.
