This means they can offer customers a full carbon footprint declaration on each type of feed. This is a big step towards carbon footprint declaration of fish produced by our customers, and all the way to the consumer. Aquaculture is already one of the most environmentally friendly ways of producing protein compared to other types of animal farming.
Aller Aqua wished to create full transparency for customers and the world around them, and particularly to contribute to reducing CO2-emissions. This project checks all those boxes.
They have already taken other measures such as replacing South American soya with regionally produced soya in their European factories.
It has been important for Aller Aqua to be verified in this process, which is why they have asked Bureau Veritas to control their work – this was rewarded with verification with any annotations.
The practicalities regarding the declaration can therefore start. Initially they include their three European factories, but shortly they plan to include the rest of the seven factories in the process.
