As we look ahead to 2026, we’re growing the PlantSea team.
We’re working on replacing PVOH plastic in laundry capsules, and moving from development into real-world scale. That means we’re looking for people who want to build, test, problem-solve and help turn materials innovation into something that actually ships.

We’re currently hiring across:
• Business Operations & Development
• Research / Lab Management
• Bio-Polymer Chemistry
• Biorefining Engineering.
If you’re curious, thoughtful, and motivated by practical impact, we’d love to hear from you.

We’re raising! 🚀

PlantSea is opening investment to the public through Republic (formerly Seedrs) - giving you the chance to own a piece of our mission to make greener choices effortless.

Our seaweed-based polymers are designed to replace plastics like PVOH, fitting existing manufacturing lines and matching in cost and performance.

Backed by £7.5 M in LOIs, FMCG trials, and patents pending, we’re scaling towards commercialisation, where we will displace thousands of tonnes of plastic and thousands of tonnes of CO2e.

This International Women's Day, we're celebrating Angharad, our very first employee, whose dedication in the lab is driving our journey towards sustainability. In STEM, women often face unique challenges, but Angharad's perspective is invaluable. As she says, "As a woman, I bring a different perspective to the team which is valued and respected. Personally, the lab feels like a second home. Days filled with new developments, exciting opportunities, and being directly involved in the move towards a sustainable planet is amazing! Supported by great teammates turned friends, I feel empowered to grow in a fun yet professional environment at PlantSea." Angharad, thank you for your incredible contributions and for inspiring us all!

We are thrilled to have closed our pre-seed funding round!

Emerging biotech start-up, PlantSea, is turning the tide on plastic pollution 🌊

The company have successfully closed a significant funding round totalling over £800,000, including an equity investment of £220,000 from us.

Using sustainably sourced seaweed from Scotland, PlantSea has developed a unique bio-refining technology to produce a ground-breaking water-soluble seaweed-based flexible film that holds both liquids and dry products such as laundry detergents. Our investment will be deployed to accelerate product development with key multinational customers in the laundry and cleaning sectors. PlantSea’s product portfolio also includes biodegradable mulch film and seaweed-infused paper.

‘We started our journey while at Aberystwyth University, a place that influenced our shared love for the ocean. We are now poised to make a significant difference by offering alternatives that are not only sustainable but also economically viable. The support of our funding partners means that we can continue with research and development to move beyond laboratory-scale production and start taking our products to market,’ explained CEO Rhiannon Rees.
