We believe in doing all we can to make the world a better place, starting with our oceans.

Viable Gear is a mission drive startup reducing traditional petroleum-based plastics with our seaweed-based bioplastic material technology targeting the fishing, aquaculture, and agriculture industries.

We believe in reducing the plastics that are made to go into the ocean and be used for food harvesting are one of the biggest steps to cleaning up our oceans and food systems. By using seaweed, a renewable resource, it enables us to make a bioplastic that actually works in a more environmentally responsible manner that performs similarly to existing products.

To achieve this, we’ve brought together experts in business, materials science, aquaculture, fishing, and farming.
