Aker BioMarine
Premium krill
Since its creation, Seanova has been committed to offering krill oil, convinced of its positive effects on health and well-being.
Seanova and Aker BioMarine formalized their partnership in 2023, with the signing of an exclusivity contract.
Aker BioMarine, the world's most sustainable krill fishery
Specializing in krill, Aker BioMarine uses an ecological krill harvesting technology (Eco-Harvesting®) that maintains the nutritional integrity of these crustaceans and minimizes their environmental impact. It is the only krill supplier to control the entire supply chain, from krill harvesting to the production of finished products.
Aker BioMarine’s fishing boats are purpose-built for krill fishing and record the fishing area of each batch of krill, thanks to the sophisticated GPS system on board.
Aker BioMarine krill oil is fully traceable back to its origin in Antarctica. This means that when you buy Aker BioMarine krill oil, you can rest assured that we know exactly where each reference comes from.

Aker BioMarine for best practices
Aker BioMarine works closely with regulatory and environmental authorities and stakeholders such as the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and the World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF-Norway).
Krill oil is certified sustainable by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). The krill fishery has been rated “A” for the past four years by the SFP (Substainable Fisheries Partnership).
Convinced of the importance of sharing best practices and promoting industry responsibility, Aker BioMarine co-founded the Association of Responsible Krill Harvesting Companies (ARK) in 2010. This industry association was created to promote research intoon sustainable harvesting of Antarctic krill and to generate scientific data on krill fishing.
Aker BioMarine offers high-quality krill-derived ingredients with a high content of active ingredients: long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), phospholipids, choline and astaxanthin, all of which are beneficial to health.
What is krill?
The name comes from the Norwegian word krill, meaning “small fish fry”.
Krill is a small, shrimp-like marine crustacean, averaging 3.5 cm in length. It contains long-chain omega-3 fatty acids: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), phospholipids, choline and astaxanthin.
Krill feed on microscopic algae. It is one of the largest biomasses on our planet. Present in all oceans, they play an essential role in the marine food chain.
There are 85 different species in all the world’s oceans, but six of them live in the Antarctic Ocean. The largest species of krill, Euphasia Superba, is harvested because of its size and the fact that it gathers in large schools, called swarms, in the Southern Ocean.
