About Tidal Vision
Tidal Vision, founded in 2015 by Craig Kasberg and Zach Wilkinson in Bellingham, Washington, was born from their shared commitment to reduce seafood waste by repurposing discarded crustacean shells into high-value chitosan biomaterials through proprietary, zero-waste technologies. The company has developed scalable extraction, formulation, and application capabilities—under names like Tidal Clear®, Tidal Grow®, and Tidal-Tec®—to deliver chitosan-based solutions across water treatment, agriculture, and materials science. Tidal Vision positions itself as a global leader in chitosan extraction, modification, and commercial deployment—driven by its mission to scale environmentally transformative biomolecular solutions for core industries.

Company Resources
Chitosan is a safe, stable, and modifiable biopolymer derived from chitin that naturally carries a positive (cationic) charge, enabling it to outperform synthetic chemicals across diverse applications.
Tidal Vision combines its proprietary zero-waste Chitofining® extraction with ultra-high-concentration Zale Technology®, plus precision modification and application platforms, to transform chitosan into turnkey, scalable biomolecular solutions.
Tidal Grow® Bioactive Technology delivers enhanced plant nutrition, crop protection, and yield—promising up to 25% better nutrition, double the protection, and over 5% higher yields for healthier crops.
Tidal-Tec® delivers sustainable, chitosan-based material solutions that replace toxic synthetics with biodegradable, high-performance alternatives. From what we wear, stand and walk-on - to what our buildings and automobiles are made of.
Tidal Clear® is a chitosan-based water treatment that reduces chemicals, removes contaminants, and boosts efficiency in existing systems. Cut chemical use by 90%. Save 25%+ in costs. Reduced onsite space-demand.
Tidal Vision has assembled a team of scientists and scaled proprietary processes for more precisely modifying and controlling the specifications of various chitosans. We have technologies for creating novel solutions
