Add a review
Carbonwave (formerly known as C-Combinator) is a pioneering company based in San Juan, Puerto Rico, dedicated to creating sustainable biomaterials from Sargassum seaweed. The company addresses the environmental challenges posed by excessive Sargassum blooms in coastal areas, particularly in the Caribbean. Carbonwave employs a unique "cascading biorefinery" model, transforming problematic seaweed into high-value products like biostimulants for agriculture, biodegradable plastics, and emulsifiers for cosmetics(Craft.co)(World Bio Market Insights). This approach not only mitigates marine pollution but also contributes to carbon sequestration and ocean health. With recent investments, including $6 million to support its innovative practices, Carbonwave aims to foster economic opportunities for coastal communities, enhance eco-tourism, and promote sustainable practices across industries(Carbonwave) (World Bio Market Insights). Through their efforts, they are shaping a green economy that benefits both the environment and local economies.
