What makes Kelpak so unique?

COLD CELLULAR-BURST TECHNOLOGY

The freshly harvested seaweed is delivered to the 6000m2 production facility for same day processing. The seaweed is sorted, cut and washed, and then progressively reduced.

Due to its robust cellular structure, Ecklonia maxima requires a gentle extraction method to preserve the natural beneficial compounds that make Kelpak so effective.

Developed with this in mind, the process uses extreme pressure differentials to rupture the cell walls. The material moves rapidly from a high- to low-pressure zone, releasing the powerful compounds within its cells. Known as Cold Cellular Burst Technology, or Cellburst®, this process has been continuosly refined over the past five decades, making it a market leader in natural biostimulants, while earning Kelpak the trust of growers and experts alike.

What makes Kelpak so effective?

This processed liquid seaweed extract contains intact active compounds at high levels and in a consistent ratio.

Phlorotannins, polyamines, alginates, and macro- and micronutrients combine to form the perfect trigger that unlocks your crop's full potential, activating key physiological pathways associated with cell elongation, plant development, and stress tolerance.

Once applied, Kelpak primes the plant, preparing it for what lies ahead throughout its development, from start to finish.
