Pharma Marine ~ Oceans Omega-3 Ingredients

SOVIK, NorwayPharma Marine launched its Oceans Omega-3 ingredient line. Oceans omega-3s combine an ecologically-focused sourcing strategy with advanced processing technology to deliver optimal omega-3 ingredients. The raw materials used in the Oceans line are certified EU human food grade and utilizes several species in order to minimize the burden on any single marine resource.

Leif Gjendemsjo, founder and managing director of Pharma Marine, explains, Our goal with the Oceans line is to use the trimmings from seafood processing, which occurs before seafood reaches restaurants and stores. In the interest of sustainability, we believe that using these byproducts, which would have otherwise been wasted, is preferable to using targeted fish that are exclusively sourced for omega-3 production."

Oceans omega-3 ingredients are rendered, refined and purified using patent pending, gentle processing methods that do not damage the oil located in Norways production facility. Technologies utilized by Pharma Marine include proprietary cold filtration, organic filtration, detoxification and concentration methods; the resultant oils are pure, third-party batch certified and have a clean taste and smell.
