Our Story

SANDBAR Oyster Company is a novel North Carolina-based business that stemmed from the collaboration between a marine scientist and commercial fishermen.

SANDBAR has developed a revolutionary approach to growing oysters, building oyster reefs, and protecting shorelines.

WE ARE ACTING ON A DEEP DESIRE TO USE THE POWER OF SHELLFISH FOR THE BETTERMENT OF PEOPLE AND OUR PLANET BY:

       Protecting valuable estuarine shorelines

      Keeping estuaries clean and productive

      Sustainably feeding a growing world population

Oyster Catcher Substrate

Oyster Catcher™ – oyster culturing and reef building substrates – are composite materials derived from cement infusion of plant-based cloths. The unique physical features of Oyster Catcher™ offer ecological and logistic benefits for oyster habitat restoration not available from cast or printed cement/concrete products, oyster shell or other cultch materials (loose or contained), and rock or similar rubble materials. 

Oyster Catcher™ features include: lightweight, highly textured surfaces, modularity, multiple anchoring points, elevation of reef frameworks above bottom, and ease of seeding if desired.
