History

Reef Cells was founded in 1990 as Bio-Marine Technologies to develop materials and methods for protecting, enhancing and creating marine ecosystems. Emphasis on the development of artificial reef modules with interconnected cellular interior habitat spaces prompted the renaming of the organization to Reef Cells. Though the name changed, the goal remains the same, to design, develop, build and deploy artificial reef structure to enhance marine environments, build organism habitat, support coral restoration, protect coastlines, and use art to attract divers away from fragile natural reefs.

Reef Cells primarily specializes in designing innovative and adaptive materials, devices and methods to enhance the marine environment by uniting with other research institutions, experts, partners, stakeholders and organizations. Our primary goal is to design and construct structures that mimic natural reef habitat and use submerged artwork to lure divers away from fragile natural reefs. We sincerely believe marine habitat loss can be mitigated and even reversed through restoration practices including building new artificial habitat reefs, supporting coral settlement techniques, coral cultivation, out-planting and using art to lure divers away from recovering fragile natural reefs.

How our Frag Plugs Work.

New Coral Lok frag plugs are revolutionizing the way living corals are attached to underwater reefs. These coral fasteners can immediately attach a living coral to a coral reef with a simple twist. The screw shaped base of the Coral Lok frag plug is designed to easily and securely mate into the female threaded Coral Lok receiver. The coral is fixed and ready to grow over the plug base and onto the reef rock

Hundreds of Frag Plug Receivers are Pre-Inserted into our Reef Cells, all in strategic locations to maximize coral growth and survivability.

Coral Lok Testing

Scientist at the Centre Scientifique de Monaco are exploring and testing our system to ensure it's viability.
