Green is the least common of the three single colours. That scarcity is the point: it gives you a differentiated line that most of your competitors are not running.
Availability moves more than gold or purple, so if green is going into a product you intend to keep in stock all year, tell us on the quote and we will be straight with you about what we can commit to.

How much to order
There are no fixed pack sizes — tell us the pounds you want and we quote that. The bands below are only there to show where most buyers land, and what each volume turns into. The trade works on roughly 12 to 15 sixteen-ounce jars of gel per dried pound; treat it as a rule of thumb, not a specification, because your yield moves with soak time, water ratio and how thick you run the gel.
| Volume | Who lands here | Roughly makes |
|---|---|---|
| 100 – 250 lb | New brands testing the market, or a single retail shelf | 1,200 – 3,750 jars |
| 250 – 500 lb | Established gel makers and growing retailers | 3,000 – 7,500 jars |
| 500 – 1,000 lb | Multi-SKU producers and small distributors | 6,000 – 15,000 jars |
| Full pallet | Distributors and contract manufacturers, palletised | 12,000 + jars |
How it reaches you
Cut by hand from open water around the island, rinsed, then laid out and turned until it is dry and brittle. Sun drying is slower than a mechanical dryer and is what keeps the strand structure and the colour intact.
Sand, grit and the salt crust that forms during drying come out in two passes. That is the step that separates usable trade moss from moss you will spend hours rinsing yourself.

Frequently asked questions
How much do I have to order?
Wholesale starts at 100 lb and runs up to full pallets. Below that, freight is the dominant cost and the price per pound stops making sense — put the number you want in the quote form and we will price it.
Why is there no price on this page?
Because a real wholesale price depends on variety, volume, destination and how often you reorder, and one number on a web page would be wrong for almost everybody. The form takes those four details and you get a price that applies to your order.
Can I get a sample first?
Yes, and we would recommend it. Ask for a pound in the form, run it through your own process, count the jars, then come back for volume once you know it works for you.
Do you supply a Certificate of Analysis?
Yes, matched to the batch you are buying. Tick the documentation box on the form and it comes back with the quote. We do not publish generic certificates, because one that is not tied to your lot tells you nothing about your sack.
Is it wildcrafted or pool-grown?
Wildcrafted. It grows on natural substrate in the open sea off Saint Lucia and is cut by hand. We do not grow in pools or tanks, and we do not bleach.
Can I repackage it under my own brand?
Yes. Most of our volume is bought to be cleaned, gelled, dried or encapsulated and sold on under the buyer’s own label.
