VALUEFARM Containers
Modular, High-Yield Cultivation for Commercial Seaweed Production
The VALUEFARM Container is a compact, scalable seaweed cultivation system designed for both research and commercial production. It ensures optimal growth conditions and integrates seamlessly with RAS facilities or functions as a stand-alone unit for biotechnology and commercial seaweed production.
Description
This scalable system is available in two standard sizes and offers high-yield, controlled production:
20’ unit with 3 Photo Bio Reactors (PBRs) of 1,200-liter capacity (total: 3,600 liters)
40’ unit with 8 Photo Bio Reactors (PBRs) of 1,200-liter capacity (total: 9,600 liters)
Designed for flexibility and performance, the VALUEFARM Container is a compact, plug-and-play solution for land-based seaweed cultivation. Whether for commercial use or research, it offers consistent output and simple operation in a modular format.
Production capacity: Each PBR yields 5–13 kg of fresh biomass per week at 10% dry weight
Integrated harvesting system with tanks, pumps, and a unique press for easy biomass handling
CE-marked and compliant with EU regulations for work safety and food contact materials
Optional service and maintenance agreements for optimized operation and long-term support
Optional sensor & IoT monitoring of parameters such as temperature, pH, flow, salinity, and real-time biomass growth
A 40’ container unit can produce up to 5.4 tonnes of fresh weight per year (10% dry weight) for a high-performing Ulva strain. The Laboratory Setup or a Feasibility Study can support strain selection or optimization for target compounds such as proteins or polysaccharides.
Your Benefits
The VALUEFARM Container offers stable and predictable yields without weather dependencies. It enables scalable growth, allowing you to start small and expand production over time. With a proven plug-and-play design, the system is easy to install and operate — even without prior experience when paired with our service agreement. The container provides a low-risk path to validate your seaweed business before committing to industrial-scale investments. Each unit can be tailored to maximize your production potential.
