Sustainability

Health and welfare

SMARTfeeds contribute to better fish health and survival, and therefore more food for consumers. We would like our SMARTfeeds to be a preferred product concept.

Feed can be consolidated with specific additional functions that are crucial for the health of the fish, growth and slaughter quality. BioMar was an early pioneer with functional and "smart feed". These are currently categorised as SMARTfeeds in our range. These products are primarily designed for better fish health and fish welfare.

BioMar offers smart, health-related feed, based on natural ingredients. SMARTfeeds are designed for maximum performance in the production cycle, with special focus on increased natural resistance to the most important diseases that occur during production in fish farms.
