Marine Harvest salmon even healthier

Marine Harvest salmon even healthier

Marine Harvest has entered into an agreement with FF Skagen to clean all

relevant fish oil used for Marine Harvest salmon farming. Cleaning of fish oils

removes environmental pollutants, and should make intake limitations for salmon

redundant. This sort of cleaning is not currently being carried in production of

salmon feed and will be a differentiator for Marine Harvest.

- This is a major step in the strategy of Marine Harvest becoming a fully

integrated protein producer, able to follow and control all ingredients from our

fish feed to the consumers plate. We want to use our position to ensure top

quality and confidence in the product all the way. From time to time the

discussion of how many salmon meals the consumer should and could eat pops up in

media. We recognize that such debates can confuse the consumer. Our aim with the

cleaning of fish oil is to remove all doubts regarding salmon intake. The result

is that Marine Harvest salmon becomes even healthier, says CEO Alf-Helge

Aarskog.

-We at FF Skagen are proud to be a part of securing even healthier salmon than

before, as we enter in to agreement with Marine Harvest to deliver cleaned fish

oils to their new production of fish feed, says CEO of FF Skagen Johannes

Palsson.
