About our sustainability efforts
Sustainability
We are devoted to developing innovative feed solutions and a sustainable global aquaculture.
BioMar’s GRI report outlines our ambitious targets for sustainability, but also shows the strong commitment that the BioMar Group has had over the years to developing sustainable and responsible solutions throughout its activities.
The BioMar Group has a comprehensive set of guidelines and we apply a high level of control to ensure that our goals are met. Furthermore, we commit to increased public transparency of our activities by reporting through our GRI report.
Complete traceability is fundamental to food safety. BioMar procedures and registrations contribute to full traceability both forwards and backwards in the food production chain. All feed ingredients can be traced back through BioMar's production and warehouses to the supplier of each individual raw material. Similarly, any raw material or finished feed can be traced to the individual farmer who has received the feed from BioMar.
The global need for food will increase, and aquaculture can become a very important player in establishing sufficient and sustainable food production, according to the UN.
BioMar works with customers to improve the sustainability of their farming activities. We use sustainably sourced raw materials – delivered by responsible suppliers. We enhance transparency and traceability throughout the whole supply chain. And we always search for new and more sustainable raw materials.
We always strive to reduce our own environmental footprint.
Sustainability is about harvesting nature's resources so that they replenish themselves and are not depleted.
The world's population is growing. Rapidly. We need food production that can replenish itself. Sustainability has become a question of life and death.
In a situation where the world needs more food and few can deliver, aquaculture has acquired even greater responsibility.
BioMar was the first company within the aquaculture industry to be certified as sustainable, according to the DNV ProSustain standard.
Sustainable farming starts with sustainable feed. Success in our sustainability programme is based on how BioMar deals with and resolves the sustainability challenges involved with obtaining raw materials from all over the world, processing the raw materials and creating and supplying high-quality products and services for our customers.
