This alga belongs to the "Fucales" order and can be found in frequently renewed waters of exposed coast areas. Himanthalia elongata usually forms a belt above that of Laminaria digitata. In spring, starting from a small, mushroom-like base, Himanthalia grows into strips up to 5 to 6 meters long and 2 or 3 centimetres wide. In order to keep all its qualities, we transform Himanthalia inless than 24 hours after the manual collection. Mainly used for food and dietetic purposes, for it’s vitamin C content, Himanthalia could offer an original application for cosmetics. |
