Export · Dried Seaweed from Tarakan
Dried seaweed for international buyers and processors
We supply sun-dried Eucheuma cottonii in two grades by moisture content — how much water remains in the seaweed. Grade A: 38–40% is drier and higher quality. Grade B: 43–45% is wetter and lower cost.
Origin Story
Tarakan Island in North Kalimantan is one of Southeast Asia's most productive seaweed regions. Warm tropical waters and nutrient-rich currents create ideal conditions for Eucheuma cottonii — the cottonii seaweed supplied to processors and importers worldwide.
Navora Marine Global works directly with local farming communities. Every batch is sun-dried, cleaned, and sorted to your moisture specification before export — with full traceability from farm to port.
We welcome importers, agents, and processors looking for reliable Indonesian supply with consistent grading and export documentation.

What We Sell
Moisture is the water still in the dried seaweed — the main spec we grade and sell. Less water means better quality. We do not publish carrageenan percentages; buyers test extraction in their own labs. What we guarantee is honest moisture grading from Tarakan.
Grade A · Higher Quality
Moisture 38–40%
Drier — less water. Our best line: darker, well-sun-dried fronds for buyers who want maximum dryness and are willing to pay more.
Grade B · Lower Cost
Moisture 43–45%
Wetter — more water. Lower grade but cheaper. For buyers who prioritize price; still sun-dried and export-ready from Tarakan.
