Aker BioMarine unveils ambitious sustainability goals towards 2030
The company develops krill-based ingredients for nutraceutical, aquaculture, and animal feed applications.
In order to achieve the carbon goal by 2030 and the net-zero ambition by 2050, Aker BioMarine will need to make its harvesting and production operations more efficient, Christina Ianssen, its sustainability manager, told FeedNavigator.
It will also look to cut CO2 emissions per ton of krill oil produced by half by 2030 in its Houston production plant, with the company outlining how it will use advanced science and data analysis to improve production processes in order to reach that target.
Through its recently launched circular economy initiative, AION, the company said it will repurpose all product and plastic waste into new products that are used in high volume such as shopping baskets and food trays.
