Food Safety & Health
Traceability
Full traceability is a prerequisite for our food safety throughout the entire production cycle. The possibility of full traceability throughout the production from egg to finished product gives our customers and final consumers worldwide a guarantee that our products are food-safe and fully controlled. Full traceability also allows AquaPri to offer high and consistent quality throughout the entire production chain:
External security and control
In addition to our own internal traceability, we ensure food safety through the HACCP principle, which evaluates all key processes in our breeding and production facilities.
In addition, the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration (DVFA) regularly conducts inspection visits to all Danish food companies, which ensures consumers a high level of food safety in Denmark.
At AquaPri we ensure that our fish are healthy by securing:
We take our responsibility for our farmed fish very seriously. Therefore, AquaPri has an obligation to treat the fish if they become ill.
Our traceability applies:
Own broodstock
- which ensures genetic control throughout the chain.
Feed
- We only buy feed approved by Danish food authorities.
Treatment of the fish
- during breeding, including vaccination and disease treatment. We only use veterinary prescribed medicinal products for vaccination and treatment.
Egg fertilization, Zander
DVFA uses the smiley scheme to evaluate the food health and safety status of a company and give it a rating after each inspection.
