Sydney, Australia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 4, 2025) – Fremantle Seaweed<\/b><\/a>, Western Australia’s leading ocean-tech Asparagopsis producer, has announced a significant operational milestone as it progresses from pilot-scale activity into commercial manufacturing. The company has secured $2.3 million in seed funding to support this transition, marking a key step forward for Australia’s capacity to deliver large-volume, scientifically validated methane-reduction solutions to beef and dairy producers.<\/p>\n

The company has focused the past four years on designing and testing the technology, engineering systems, and marine infrastructure needed to reliably cultivate and process the seaweed at scale.<\/p>\n

Fremantle Seaweed<\/b><\/a> has established high-density longline cultivation systems, modular hatchery units, and a purpose-built harvesting vessel-forming an integrated ocean-tech platform from hatchery through to environmental processing.<\/p>\n

The company’s North-West Hub, a 3,000-hectare site under development, is expected to become the centrepiece of its commercial rollout. Once operational, modelling indicates the site could have the capacity to supply a substantial share of the Asparagopsis needed by Australia’s dairy and feedlot operators.<\/p>\n

To support industry readiness, Fremantle Seaweed is preparing a 400-day Wagyu feedlot trial involving 60 head of cattle and more than 1,500 kilograms of dried Asparagopsis. Conducted under commercial feeding conditions, the trial is structured to generate real-world performance, productivity, and emissions data\u2014information producers have identified as critical for widescale market adoption.<\/p>\n

Leadership Commentary<\/b><\/p>\n

Chris De Cuyper, Co-founder & Managing Director<\/b>, said:<\/p>\n

“The support behind Fremantle Seaweed has been incredible. Our analysis shows that scaling to the North-West Hub could abate close to one million tonnes of CO\u2082-equivalent emissions each year, roughly the same as offsetting a small LNG facility. That’s the kind of real-world impact that investors, producers, and policymakers are looking for.<\/p>\n

“What excites me most is the sense of shared purpose. Farmers want practical, natural tools that make sense on-farm, and our job is to deliver those – technology that fits seamlessly into existing systems and creates value across the board.”<\/p>\n

Industry Context<\/b><\/p>\n

Access to stable, large-volume supply has been a limiting factor for commercial adoption globally. Fremantle Seaweed’s transition into commercial production represents a meaningful shift in addressing that bottleneck within the Australian market.<\/p>\n
