Hofseth BioCare Fish Oil and Fish Protein Certified Sustainable

OmeGo and ProGo, respectively Hofseth BioCare Fish Oil and Fish Protein from salmon’s trimmings, are now carrying Friend of the Sea seal of approval.

Norwegian company Hofseth BioCare produces fish oil and fish protein sourced exclusively from trimmings of salmon processing plants. By making best use of offcuts Hofset BioCare is optimizing the use of valuable marine resources, otherwise wasted.

Hofseth BioCare´s key objective is to provide high value added biomarine ingredients for human applications

All the production is carried out in the Midsund plant where trimmings arrive in plastic boxes, all signed and numbered. Fresh offcuts that would otherwise be wasted are supplied to the factory several times a day and immediately processed.

GMO products are used neither by Hofseth BioCare nor by the identified salmon suppliers.

The Company has a specific tracking procedure which guarantees the tracking and tracing of each trimming’s batch.

The waste management system in place includes a filtering system treating the waste waters; controls occur three times every year and are regulated by the government.

“We’re very happy to have obtained Friend of the Sea certification to prove the sustainable origin of our products” explains Sjur Jenssen, CEO of Hofseth BioCare.
