Project Overview

Fresh By Design will work with CH4 Global to deliver their first EcoPark, an integrated facility in New Zealand for sustainable aquaculture. The facility, together with several EcoParks beginning construction in Australia, will enable large-scale commercial production of the company’s Asparagopsis-based animal supplements for enteric methane mitigation. The project will repurpose a brownfield site at Ocean Beach, a land-based aquaculture park near Bluff that is on track to become the largest such park in New Zealand. The EcoPark at Ocean Beach will guarantee controlled, consistent Asparagopsis production as the company expands commercial supply to the Australian and New Zealand markets.
