Circular & Restorative
At BioMar, we take action for our areas of responsibility. We encourage and stimulate restorative practices in our supply chain and have set targets for minimum inclusion levels of circular and restorative ingredients.
BioMar considers raw materials originating from by-products and waste streams to be circular. We seek to decouple feed supply chains from direct competition with food for human consumption.
We define restorative ingredients as raw materials that significantly shift the balance between ecosystem impacts and human production systems. The goal is to stimulate net-positive environmental outcomes compared to time-bound relevant benchmarks.
Milestones in 2025
27.5% Circular and/or Restorative ingredients in our feed, progressing towards our 2030 target of 50%.
