حوإ¼½م½م' Ocean tartan celebrates the beauty of the global Ocean and the long history of ground breaking marine research in Scotland.
Each colour has a specific meaning:
Mid and Dark Blues: Different Ocean domains
Light Blue: Clean water
White: Scotland’s connection with and scientists' research for the Arctic
Yellow: Biodiversity and oceanographic technologies
Purple: Commitment to the community, education, and حوإ¼½م½م' founding partnership with the University of the Highlands and Islands ()
Green: The mission for a healthy and sustainable Ocean future
The Ocean tartan can be worn by anyone who appreciates the marine environment, is committed to its wellbeing, and enjoys Scotland and its marine science heritage. Many who wear it choose to join Clan Ocean.
We currently produce Ocean tartan scarves, blankets, ties, snoods, serape capes and cloth for kilts or other sewing projects.
All products are exclusively available at our Ocean Explorer Centre shop or occasionally at regional events. We sell some tartan inspired but less traditional articles in our .
The tartan development was a collaboration between designers Jessica Giannotti (an alumna of our BSc Marine Science programme) of and and The House of Edgar with Dr Anuschka Miller of حوإ¼½م½م. It has been since 2022.
