Who we are

A natural sea sponge bulk supplier


Exporting sea sponges worldwide

Spongean is a natural sea sponge bulk supplier. The company has been in the natural sea sponge business for three generations now, since 1958. It was established at the island of Lemnos by Emmanouel Psarras, who was a sponge diver harvesting sponges from the depths of the Aegean sea. 20 years later his son in law, Panagiotis D. Varnalis, took over and further evolved this family business.

Since 2006, his son, Dimitris P. Varnalis has been running Spongean maintaining the traditional methods of processing, as well as the high quality of the sponges supplied. Spongean is dealing with Greek, Mediterranean and Caribbean sea sponges, serving the local Greek market and exporting as well.


With its exporting activities to countries such as Italy, Germany, Israel, Korea and many others, and its strong presence in the local Greek market, Spongean has been supplying a wide range of natural sea sponges that cover all possible needs.

Our sponges are all plastic free and Eco-friendly, and we sort them with accuracy regarding size and quality. We export globally offering some of the most competitive pricing. However, the majority of our customers will tell you that our strongest business advantage is our exceptional after sales service.
