FULLERTON, CA - March 8, 2010 - The Omega-3 ingredient Calamarine(TM),
made solely from the by-products of Calamari food processing, achieves
Friend of the Sea certification. A new high-DHA Omega-3 ingredient
from the Norwegian company Pharma Marine, Calamarine(TM) comprises a
range of concentrates as well as natural oil made from calamari
trimmings from food processing factories all over the world. By using
only the by-products from existing fisheries, Pharma Marine is adding
value to these important global fishery resources. Friend of the Sea
recognizes that increasing the use of fishery by-products is very
important on the road towards a more sustainable future for global
fisheries.
The announcement comes at a time when Friend of the Sea is rapidly
gaining recognition as the international standard for sustainability
certification of fishmeal, fish oils and Omega-3 supplements.
"Calamarine(TM) is a range of new high-DHA Omega-3 products derived
from by-products only. We are thankful that we are able to bring this
new eco-friendly and uniquely sustainable ingredient to our customers
in a time when consumers are becoming increasingly educated on issues
of sustainability and accountability," comments Pharma Marine
chairman, Leif Kjetil Gjendemsjø, himself a 20 year veteran of the
Omega-3 business. "We are glad that our company and product has
passed external scrutiny and that Friend of the Sea recognizes the
positive impact our production has on the environment."
