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.

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.

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.

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.
