Product formats
Two formats, one quality standard
Fully dried sea cucumber (足干海参) is the format most banquet kitchens specify. It is cleaned, boiled and slowly dried until moisture is low enough to store without refrigeration, then rehydrates to five or six times its dried weight. Dried stock is ideal for contract buyers because it keeps for 18–24 months in a sealed, dry store.
Frozen sea cucumber is cleaned, cooked and blast-frozen ready to cook. It removes the two-day soaking process from your kitchen, which matters for hotels and high-volume banquet operations where labour is the constraint rather than cost per kilogram.
Both formats come from the same Sabah landings and the same grading floor. The difference is only in how the product is finished and packed.
- Dried: 18–24 month shelf life, 5–6× rehydration
- Frozen: ready to cook, no soaking required
- Both graded on pieces per kilogram
- Both available in bulk carton or vacuum pack
Grades & specification
Sea cucumber grades we supply

Sizes are indicative. A written specification — pieces per kilogram, moisture level and packing format — is confirmed before every shipment.
Sourcing
Sourced from Sabah, graded on our own floor
Sabah's reef waters give sea cucumber the thick, dense body that survives rehydration intact. We buy from the same coastal harvesters each season, record the landing, and move stock into our own cleaning and drying floor within days.
Because grading happens in-house, we can hold a specification across batches instead of accepting whatever a broker has that month. That is what makes a repeat order predictable.
- Wild-caught, never pond-farmed
- Dried in small lots with moisture checks
- Sorting by pieces per kilogram, not by eye
- Landing records retained for traceability

Handling
Storage guidance for dried sea cucumber
Keep dried sea cucumber sealed, dry and away from direct sunlight. Unopened cartons hold for 18–24 months in a cool store; once opened, transfer the balance into an airtight container and keep it in a dry cabinet or chiller during humid months.
For frozen stock, hold at −18°C and thaw only what a service needs. Never refreeze after thawing — texture collapses and the product loses the firm bite banquet kitchens expect.
- Dried: airtight, dry, 18–24 months
- Frozen: −18°C, do not refreeze
- Rehydrate dried stock in clean water, 4–8°C, 48–72 hours
- Change soaking water twice daily
