Mobilising the power of New Zealand red seaweed

Organic Bioactives presents a novel, natural active ingredient that harnesses New Zealand red seaweed, which has been found to not only be a dynamo on its own to achieve superior hydration, but when combinedly extracted with additional New Zealand botanicals, offers superior support for skin care

Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) plays a crucial role in shaping the marine ecosystems of New Zealand. Originating from the frigid depths of Antarctica, this dense, cold water mass travels northward, bringing with it a wealth of nutrients and impacting global ocean currents.

For New Zealand, a country uniquely positioned in close proximity to Antarctica, the influence of AABW is particularly significant. Nestled in the southwestern Pacific Ocean, New Zealand's unique geographical location positions it as one of the closest inhabited landmasses to the icy expanse of Antarctica.1

This proximity not only establishes New Zealand as a critical player in Antarctic exploration and research but also as a guardian of some of the world's purest oceanic waters. From its southernmost city, Invercargill, to the key port of Christchurch, the nation serves as a vital hub for logistical support, environmental stewardship, and oceanic purity.
