WELLB2BIO · UPCYCLING MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY

We turn
the discarded
into discovery.

Starting from ocean resources once discarded,we research the potential of next-generation vegan bio-materials.

THE SOURCE · MARINE PLANT

A new possibility for skin science,discovered in the sea.

Marine plants collected every year

We transform ocean resources that once ended as wasteinto high-value bio-materials.

02 / PURPOSE

FROM WASTE TO ACTIVE MATERIAL

So that a choice for the environmentand the potential of skin sciencemove in the same direction.

We connect possibilities found in nature to new material value for both the environment and the skin.

03 — OUR VISION

FROM THE SEA,
INTO NEW POSSIBILITIES.

We carry possibilities that began in the sea toward a better standard for bio-materials.

01 / DISCOVER

Discovering Potential

We discover the potential of new bio-materials in nature.

02 / REDEFINE

Redefining Value

We redefine the value of marine plants as high-value bio-materials.

03 / ADVANCE

A New Standard for Materials

Through precise research, we set the standard for sustainable materials.

04 / CONNECT

Connecting Ocean and Skin Science

We align environmental value and skin science in one direction.

CEO MESSAGE

“So that resources once discarded in the seabecome technology for people and the environment.”

WELLB2BIO began with a single question about the marine plants collected again and again, year after year.
If discarded ocean resources could become new bio-materials, the environment and skin science can move forward together.

By transforming marine plants into vegan low-molecular PDRN, we aim to set a standard for more honest ingredients and sustainable processes. We believe the value of technology is complete only when it creates real change for people and the environment.

Through trustworthy research and responsible commercialization, we will grow into a Korean marine biotechnology company recognized in the global market.

NEWS

Joined the Korea Marine Bio Industry Association as a full member

WELLB2BIO has joined the Korea Marine Bio Industry Association as a full member. Established under the authorization of the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, the association serves as an industry-academia-research-government platform connecting marine bio companies, research institutes, local governments and public agencies, and as a policy partner for the sector. Through the association, WELLB2BIO will broaden its research and commercialization network for marine-derived materials and expand its marine upcycling technology in both domestic and global markets.

Featured in the Industry Trends of Mbio-Bridge, National Marine Biodiversity Institute of Korea

News about WELLB2BIO was featured in the Industry Trends section of Mbio-Bridge, a marine bio industry information platform operated by the National Marine Biodiversity Institute of Korea under the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. Mbio-Bridge is a public platform that gathers information on Korean marine bio companies, research achievements and policies and shares it with the industry. Our approach to transforming discarded marine resources into high-value materials was shared through this industry information channel.

Selected for the 2026 Startup City Project, Investment-Linked Startup Package

WELLB2BIO was selected as a startup for the 2026 Startup City Project Investment-Linked Startup Package, promoted by the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and Ulsan Metropolitan City. The program supports the commercialization of early-stage companies in connection with investment attraction to foster the regional startup ecosystem. Through this program, WELLB2BIO plans to accelerate the commercialization of its marine bio materials.

Patent application filed for vegan PDRN derived from Sargassum horneri

We have filed a patent application for our vegan PDRN material technology derived from Sargassum horneri. The technology obtains low-molecular PDRN material from marine plants collected year after year and aims to provide a vegan alternative to animal-derived ingredients. WELLB2BIO is conducting follow-up research and preparing the material for commercialization.
