About
Seastex is a UK-based sustainable material SME addressing the lack of circular, safe, and sustainable materials within the architecture and design industry. Our solution involves transforming mussel beards from aquaculture waste into insulation panels and furniture.
Compared to traditional materials like mineral wools or petroleum-based products, our products contain no chemicals or toxins, do not emit VOCs, and are 100% renewable, recyclable, and biodegradable. Our mussel beards are naturally flame retardant, offer better insulation properties, and are fully circular.
