SUSTAINABILITY. OUR FOUNDATION

Our mission

Aker BioMarine is committed to making a positive impact on human health and nutrition without compromising the health of the planet.

Sustainability, transparency, and responsibility are at the core of our corporate governance and way of operating.

Continuous improvement

In our efforts to achieve our Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) ambitions, we benchmark ourselves internally while embracing transparency and external scrutiny of our progress.

We aim to reduce the company’s CO2- footprint. In doing so, Aker BioMarine will systematically implement measures to increase energy efficiency based on available technology.

We aim to eliminate product waste and be fully circular in our principal waste streams.

We are part of the solution to feed a growing population in a sustainable way and continuously innovate to ensure that we maximize the utilization and value of our resources while minimizing our carbon footprint.

How we contribute to human health and nutrition

As a leading krill ingredient company, we are committed to exploring all the potential benefits of krill and other sources of important nutrients for human health. We believe everyone should have access to quality nutrition and good health.

Sourced from the world’s most sustainable krill fishery in Antarctica, our krill ingredient is unmatched in nutrient levels. The nutrients found in krill, including omega-3 fatty acids, phospholipids, and choline, deliver essential health benefits. Research shows that krill can help reduce the effects of lifestyle diseases by positively influencing heart, muscle, joint, brain, and skin health, and more.
