“Partnering Aquamin and Laird Superfood has been a perfect match as both companies are passionate about sustainably sourced ingredients that provide viable sources of energy,” said Greg Berthomieu, VP of Strategic Partnerships at Stauber Performance Ingredients, Inc. “By adding calcium along with 70 other trace marine minerals, Aquamin shines as a key ingredient in Laird’s award-winning creamer.”
Aquamin is a unique marine multi-mineral complex providing bioactive calcium, magnesium and 72 other trace marine minerals, for the fortification of food, beverage and supplement products. Aquamin is derived solely from seaweed harvested off the coast of Iceland where the seaweed absorbs trace minerals from the surrounding seawater.
