Minister Tim Ayres and Josh Wilson MP Visit SeaStock
Senator the Hon Tim Ayres, Minister for Industry and Innovation and Minister for Science, visited SeaStock on 21 October 2026 with Josh Wilson MP, Member for Fremantle and Assistant Minister for Climate Change and Energy.
They toured the cultivation tubes where SeaStock grows Asparagopsis taxiformis year-round under controlled conditions. That crop produces RubySea R-PE, a red fluorescent protein used to label antibodies in research and diagnostics. R-PE isn't made synthetically at commercial scale. Australia imports every gram it uses.
The same crop also yields AlgaToro, SeaStock's all-natural cattle additive that cuts methane.
