BioMar’s production facilities in Myre and Karmøy, Norway, have officially achieved Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) Feed certification. This latest achievement strengthens BioMar’s global commitment to responsible feed production and ensures Norwegian farmers have access to ASC-compliant feed ahead of upcoming requirements.

BioMar is now able to support the Norwegian salmon sector with locally produced ASC-compliant feed. This will help farms prepare for the October 2025 deadline, when ASC certification will require feed sourced from ASC-certified facilities.

“This certification is the result of our long-term efforts to ensure that feed production for aquaculture is done in a sustainable way, both for the environment and for people. We are proud to offer our customers feed that meets the strictest requirements for environmental and social responsibility,” said Håvard Jørgensen, managing director of BioMar Norway, in a press release.

The certification audits were carried out in early 2025 and included a comprehensive evaluation of both sites’ operations, procurement systems, and traceability standards. With this achievement, Norway joins BioMar’s expanding network of ASC-certified production sites.

BioMar has previously achieved ASC Feed Certification in Ecuador, Chile, the United Kingdom, and Costa Rica, enabling farmers across a wide range of species and regions to meet the increasing demand for responsibly farmed seafood. “Each certification represents another step in BioMar’s broader strategy of supporting responsible aquaculture practices, empowering customers to meet environmental, social, and market expectations,” the company said.
