BioMar has achieved ASC Feed Certification for its production facility in Brande, Denmark, significantly expanding the reach of its ASC-compliant feed offering. As a key site supplying feed to Central and Northern Europe, Brande’s certification reflects BioMar’s commitment to responsible and certified aquaculture, enabling even more producers to align with the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) Feed Standard across species and geographies.
The Brande facility plays a vital role within BioMar’s global production network, delivering high-performance feed solutions tailored to the needs of farmers across Northern and Central Europe. With this new certification, BioMar Denmark is now able to provide ASC-compliant feed to a wider network of customers, supporting their transition ahead of the upcoming 31 October 2025 deadline, when ASC-certified farms must source feed from ASC-certified suppliers to maintain their certification.
“This milestone strengthens our ability to deliver certified feed solutions that support our customers’ ambitions for responsible farming,” says Anders Brandt-Clausen, Managing Director at BioMar Denmark.
“By certifying our Brande facility, we’re expanding access to ASC-compliant feed in over 20 countries, helping producers meet evolving sustainability targets and secure their place in global markets.”
The ASC Feed Standard outlines strict criteria for responsible feed production, including environmental stewardship, social and labour rights, health and safety, and the responsible sourcing of raw materials.
This latest achievement joins a growing list of ASC-certified BioMar sites around the world, including facilities in Chile, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Norway, and the U.K. Together, these sites enable BioMar to support ASC-certified farmers across species, stages, and regions.
“With ASC-compliant feed now available from our Danish facility, we’re proud to extend our certified offering across Europe and into new markets,” concludes Anders. “This certification reinforces our role as a trusted partner in responsible aquaculture and our commitment to helping customers thrive in a fast-evolving industry.”
This achievement is part of BioMar’s ongoing commitment to supporting the evolution of aquaculture through responsible feed solutions. By combining innovation, collaboration, and a strong focus on certification, BioMar continues to help producers meet the demands of a changing industry.
