After many years of hand harvesting and supplying the local Northern Ireland market with the edible red seaweed - Dulse (Rhodophyta - Palmaria palmata) - a traditional snack food in Northern Ireland and the west coast of Ireland, Irish Seaweeds / Dolphin Sea Vegetable Company instigated Research & Development Projects, with major Universities within Ireland and Northern Ireland, for the drying and cultivation techniques of sea veg - edible seaweeds. This Research & Development resulted in the establishment of seaweed aquaculture and led to the installation of an experimental “Seaweed Farm” - based in Strangford Lough, Co Down, Northern Ireland... THE FIRST IN EUROPE OF IT'S KIND!!!! Due to increasing worldwide interest in the use of algae / seaweeds for their health properties and benefits, Irish Seaweed / Dolphin Sea Vegetable Company undertook further Research Programs, which has resulted in the development of the Red Marine Algae ( RMA ) products – called Phyco-PLEX and EMERALD RMA. With global interest of seaweed, its naturalness and its many properties, Irish Seaweeds also have their own Seaweed Skin Care range for Psoriasis, Ezcema, Acne, Dry Skin, etc. Irish Seaweeds Skin Care range are made from 100% natural Irish Seaweed, hand harvested from the shores of the Irish Coast.
