Algae cultivation
Cultivation systems at sea and in controlled production environments.
From water and algae, toward regenerative cycles.
Water is life.
AMAN IMAN is a new initiative born within Seafood Fukui Co., Ltd. Starting from water, algae, and marine resources, it connects ecosystems, regional industries, and material cycles, shaping models of regional circularity.
Gently reweaving the relationships between water, life, and industry.
01 - About
About AMAN IMAN
AMAN IMAN comes from a saying of Saharan nomads, often rendered as “Water is life.” For us, it is more than a phrase. It is a way of seeing: water, life, material cycles, human well-being, and industry are not separate things, but deeply interwoven.
AMAN IMAN is a new business and research collaboration initiative born within Seafood Fukui Co., Ltd. Starting from water, algae, and marine resources, it connects ecosystems, regional industries, and material flows, nurturing models of regional circularity.
Across food, aquaculture, materials, environmental technologies, and regional industries, it moves ideas into practice, drawing on working experience to give form to future industries.
Our work does not follow a single linear plan. It evolves through relationships among researchers, companies, regions, materials, ecosystems, and emerging business models.
02 - Vision
Vision
A way of living in which the health of people is inseparable from the health of water, ecosystems, and material cycles.
Water as a living field
Seeing water not only as a resource, but as a field where relation, renewal, and transformation arise.
Material cycles
Connecting local industries, ecosystems, and material flows into new circular forms.
Toward future industries
Carrying this vision into aquaculture, materials, environmental technologies, and regional practice.

05 - From Seafood Fukui
A foundation in practice
Seafood Fukui Co., Ltd. sources marine raw materials, while processing and sales are carried out by its wholly owned subsidiary, Fukui Co., Ltd. Through these two fields of practice, it has accumulated long-standing knowledge of the sea and its materials.
AMAN IMAN was born from within that working experience. From this ground, it extends into research collaboration, pilot projects, material development, environmental technologies, and regional initiatives.
A new initiative born within Seafood Fukui.
