Product Development
CKR has developed a kelp product with a high unsaturated fatty acid profile for a
Vancouver homeopathic company, special kelp blends for a Chicago distributor of health
foods, a sea vegetable salad blend for AMIQ Institute of Russia, and is presently
working on custom feeds for abalone and sea urchin culture. We welcome the opportunity
of working with clients on products to meet their needs.
Kelp Farming
CKR has operated its commercial kelp farm for the past ten years and has consulted on kelp
farm construction and operation (British Columbia, Quebec, Northwest Territories,
Newfoundland), farming giant kelp for methane gas production (California) and advising on
wild kelp harvest impact (British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Russia). CKR is the
only commercial producer of kelp seed in North America.
CKR has designed a method to enhance impoverished giant kelp beds for the Huu Ay Aht
First Nation (Vancouver Island) and seeding techniques for shores disrupted by oil spills
and other unnatural events.
