Unique harvest technology

Krill is caught and processed using our Eco-Harvesting™ system. This assures maximum freshness, while the process minimizes physical damage to the krill, and minimizes by-catch. Rapid onboard processing preserves all the key nutrients in both krill meal and krill oil.

The fishing equipment remains underwater while a continuous stream of water flows through the net and directly into the hose, bringing the krill live and fresh directly into the factory vessel. This advanced fishing process allows for continuous processing of fresh raw material with superior product quality.

Eco-Harvesting results in minimal environmental impact. The innovative, sustainable krill harvesting will allow future generations to reap bounteous harvests of krill for yet-to-be-developed uses of this tiny but nutrition-packed crustacean.
