Spanish omega-3 manufacturer Biomega Natural Nutrients achieved Friend of the Sea (FoS) certification for its soft gel capsules.

The fish oil is extracted from anchovies fished in the South East Pacific Ocean (FAO Area 87) only by purse seine fleets approved by FoS.

Biomega was also audited to ensure it meets FoS requirements on carbon footprint reduction and offset as well as social accountability.

"The certification of Biomega’s products will help Spanish Omega3 consumers make a sustainable choice” comments Paolo Bray, director of FoS.
