About Qingdao Bright Moon Seaweed Group Co., Ltd.
Qingdao Bright Moon Seaweed Group Co., Ltd., founded in 1968 in Qingdao, Shandong Province, is a high-tech enterprise that uses marine kelp as raw material to produce bioactive substances of ocean origin. With more than five decades of history, the group has become the world's largest alginic acid production base and a Chinese benchmark of the marine economy, recognised as a national innovative enterprise and a single champion of the manufacturing industry.
Its business is organised into six major lines: alginates for food, pharmaceutical and industrial uses; functional sugar alcohols such as mannitol and sorbitol, where it ranks among the leading producers; marine cosmetics; ocean functional foods; marine biomedical materials, including an implant-grade ultra-pure sodium alginate that broke the foreign technology monopoly; and marine biological fertilisers. Its food alginates serve as thickeners, stabilisers and gelling agents across a wide range of products.
The group hosts top-level research platforms, including the State Key Laboratory of Seaweed Active Substances and the Ministry of Agriculture's key laboratory for seaweed fertilisers, together with a national engineering research centre and a postdoctoral research station. That scientific base supports its expansion into ingredients for food, health and biomedicine, with sales in domestic and international markets and a strategy focused on extracting more value from every ton of processed seaweed.
