BioMar EMEA's world of aquaculture

Fish on your plate

Fish - an efficient source of protein

May 13 2019

Aquaculture is one of the least resource-intensive forms of food production. Fish do not burn energy fighting gravity, and because they are cold-blooded, they do not burn energy adjusting their body temperature. This makes fish very energy efficient.

Less is more

May 12 2019

Fish farmers can obtain better results by using less feed. BioMar’s high performance fish feeds optimise feed performance, which enables farmers to use less feed without compromising on the nutritional needs of the fish and farming objectives. This is not only good for fish farmers and the aquaculture industry, it is also good for the environment.

Fish is good for you

May 11 2019

Current research indicates that fish consumption reduces cardiovascular diseases and enhances brain development of infants and young children when consumed by the mother before or during pregnancy. Fish is an excellent source of EPA and DHA omega 3 fatty acids. Furthermore, fish consumption contributes to the intake of essential nutrients such as iodine, selenium calcium and vitamin D.

An industry in constant development

May 10 2019

Aquaculture is the fastest growing industry of all major food production sectors. Over the past 20 years, the aquaculture industry has evolved drastically with the contributions of innovative, ever-more sustainable fish feeds.

Reducing the environmental impact

May 8 2019

Everything we do has an environmental impact, flying planes, heating our homes and feeding our families. To mitigate global warming and climate changes, it is important that we all reduce our environmental footprint.

Care for the life below water

May 7 2019

Marine fish stocks are in danger. We need to take better care of our oceans to preserve the world's marine fish stocks and create sustainable development. BioMar strives to deliver upon UN's Sustainable Development Goal 14 to help overcome the problems facing our oceans, such as overfishing, biodiversity and worsening coastal eutrophication.

Sourcing & raw materials

Responsibly sourced raw materials

April 8 2019

BioMar has several ways of securing responsibly sourced and safe raw materials. One of these ways is carrying out supplier audits on a regular basis, based on a profound assessment of requirements and risks connected to each single raw material and supplier.

Embracing the responsibility

April 3 2019

Environmentally, socially and economically responsible behaviour is not only a corporate commitment for BioMar, but also a demand to our suppliers. Our Supplier Approval, Audit and Traceability (SAAT) team secures a resilient, stable and sustainable supply chain behind every BioMar feed delivered to customers all around the world.

UPDATING MINERAL ADDITIVES IN FEEDS

February 11 2019

Optimal health and performance at minimal environmental impact are of key importance for BioMar. BioMar EMEA has updated the source of mineral additives in all our feeds.

BioMar uses Sustainable Solution Steering methodology

Flashback 2018 - Earlier this year BioMar announced the implementation of Sustainable Solution Steering methodology to its raw material portfolio. The move has made a significant contribution to BioMar's leading position as a sustainability leader in the aquaculture industry.

Innovative aquafeeds

Accelerating performance of marine RAS nurseries

January 21 2020

RAS expands towards marine nurseries and this asks for special attention on specific properties of the feed, such as faeces stability. BioMar presents LARVIVA ORBIT, its new aquafeed specially developed for marine RAS nurseries. LARVIVA ORBIT is planned to be available on the market in the first quarter of 2020. From spring 2020, sea bass and sea bream hatcheries will have access to ORBIT feeds specifically designed for prolonging the growth of fry in land-based facilities before transfer to sea cages.

BioMar is creating solutions targeted towards consumers

April 23 2019

BioMar has completed the testing of insect meal in feeds for aquaculture and believe it shows promise as an alternative protein source. This is one among many other novel ingredients like algae oil or single cell proteins that BioMar has been investigating. BioMar believes these raw materials can address some of the needs of the market and are now eager to speed up their adoption through the creation of innovative feed solutions targeting the needs of seafood consumers.

Increased flexibility, even better quality and performance

January 31 2019

25% extra production capacity for increased flexibility, for even better quality and performance of Europe's leading fish feeds.

Coping with cold waters

January 24 2019

In winter, Mediterranean waters can take a heavy toll on sea bream growing in sea cages. BioMar has developed our feed types INTRO Qardio M and EFICO Qardio M, targeting to help fish maintaining growth and good condition during the winter period by strengthening them from the very core.

Making state-of-the-art fish feed

January 17 2019

This is how to make state-of-the-art fish feed. Rainbow trout, sea bass, sea bream, sturgeon, tilapia and many others... We craft the right feed for the right fish at our high-tech production facilities by using the best available technology - just like feed for salmon in this video. Our Norwegian colleagues made this video some time ago and it is worth watching over and over again!

Trials - The only way to make the right feed choice

January 2 2019

For any fish farm, it is important to make the right decision about the optimum feed for the farming conditions and targeted production of this specific farm. To make the right feed choice, feed trials must be conducted at the farm level - BioMar can assist in this.
