Antarctic krill - worlds largest biomass
Krill is one of nature’s most valuable marine resources. We believe in its potential to prevent lifestyle diseases, enhance food security, and improve resource utilization in a world where demand for sustainable nutrition is growing. However, responsible harvesting is essential to realizing these benefits without compromising the health of the ocean.
Our approach to sustainability is built on science, collaboration, and innovation. Through dedicated research, advanced technology, and industry-wide partnerships, we ensure that krill harvesting remains one of the most precautionary and well-regulated fisheries in the world. We actively support ecosystem monitoring, biodiversity protection, and sustainable fishery management through collaborations with scientific and regulatory bodies.
Certified
Aker QRILL Company ensures low-impact, responsible harvesting, adhering to strict regulatory compliance and third-party certifications.
We were the first krill fishery to achieve MSC certification in 2010 and have maintained it since, and for seven consecutive years, we have been the only reduction fishery to receive an “A” rating from the Sustainable Fisheries Partnership (SFP).
