As the global population continues to grow, a 30 million tonne projected increase in aquaculture production means there will be a need for an additional 45 million tonnes of raw materials. So where will they come from? Skretting will be exploring the world of raw materials in an online series, deepening on a selection of our ongoing activities in this arena while exploring novel ingredients and some of our most important partnerships.
Today, Skretting is the market leader for diets specifically designed for recirculating aquaculture systems. Recirculating Aquaculture Systems (RAS) are land-based aquaculture facilities that reuse water by cycling it through a filtration system so it can be used again.
Safe, good quality protein is essential for the growing world population, and aquaculture has the potential to provide this. We have compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions about aquaculture and aquaculture feeds to provide a better understanding of our industry and the measures we take to fulfil our mission - 'Feeding the Future'.
At Skretting’s Aquaculture Research Centre (ARC) curiosity is our passion. Our ultimate goal is to see the research we conduct implemented into innovative and sustainable solutions for the aquaculture industry.
Skretting has implemented dynamic quality assurance and control at every stage of our production. We do this to ensure feed and food safety, quality, and to preserve our leadership in the global aquafeed market.
Bridging the raw material gap - how Skretting is working to meet aquaculture's 2050 challenge

Skretting Aquaculuture Research Centre RAS facilities set to accelerate knowledge and support growth
01.10.2018 To enable researchers to conduct precise experiments on its latest closed system feed formulations in strict, closely monitored environmental conditions, Skretting recently expanded its Lerang Research Station in Stavanger, Norway, to include a state-of-the-art recirculation hall.
Functional nutrition’s crucial role in helping aquaculture mitigate AMR development
28.08.2018 The World Health Organisation (WHO) cites antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as an increasingly serious threat to global public health. With the knowledge that the overuse of antibiotics in animal production contributes to AMR, Skretting advocates for a substantial reduction in farming’s reliance on antimicrobial drugs.
