Natural products that do not harm nature and require little to no human intervention during growth. That is what we strive for at plnktn.
A difficult task, but one we are more than happy to take on!
Why difficult? We humans have increasingly influenced nature over the past thousand years. Including how nature grows. We started farming 12,000 years ago and became masters in growing crops. Something that allows us to fill many stomachs, but at the same time we started looking at things from an efficiency perspective instead of from a natural strength perspective.
We wondered if this could not be done differently. And it turns out that it can.
We are therefore happy and proud that this has been achieved with our Magnesium! Our Magnesium consists of sea lettuce that is harvested at various locations in Europe: on the sea coast at low tide, where the water is calmer. The harvest areas are always of good water quality and in accordance with organic regulations.
Harvesting is carried out by hand using methods that protect the source and guarantee a hygienic quality compatible with the specifications of organic farming in locations far from pollution (cities and water treatment plants).
Harvesting is done with a knife without scraping the rocks, leaving some of the seaweed hanging to ensure regrowth and without collecting everything to ensure the reproduction of the seaweed.
This makes our Magnesium higher in price but according to a method of working ensures that we do not run out of future food sources. And 100% organic. Something we at plnktn. firmly believe in.
