From Meat to Packaging: Seaweed Offers Many Possibilities

Aris Molenaar notes that while seaweed is often unknown, it addresses sustainability and health issues. Dennis van Overbeek of Olijck Foods uses seaweed in half-meat products without altering taste, while Henri Timmerman of Conpax utilizes seaweed coatings to replace plastic in food containers, though these eco-friendly options are slightly more expensive.
