How we work with transparency and trust
Our quality, safety and traceability approach brings together ingredient and supplier approval, production controls, product release, monitoring and follow-up. The systems are designed to support consistent feed production and provide information about the materials used.
Ensuring food quality and safety - Nutrace
Nutrace® is Skretting’s unique company-wide management program that ensures feed-to-food quality and safety. Nutrace is continuously evolving to ensure that all potential risks associated with Skretting’s fish and shrimp feed production are minimised, and that any irregularities are found quickly and acted on. This unique concept allows our customers and end-consumers to have full confidence in Skretting as a transparent and trustworthy partner.
All internal operations are audited and all suppliers undergo a comprehensive evaluation and approval process to ensure premium-quality, renewable and responsibly managed resources. We conduct robust analyses and have full traceability of all approved raw materials - at delivery, throughout the formulation process, and up to the point of feed delivery.
Continuous monitoring and improvement
Quality and food safety certifications
Many Skretting production sites are certified to recognised quality and food safety standards. These certifications provide independent verification of specific activities and management systems at the sites covered.
Ingredient and supplier approval
Before use, raw materials and suppliers must complete an approval process based on the ingredient, source and intended use. The assessment covers relevant quality, safety, regulatory and traceability requirements. Environmental and social sourcing requirements are addressed through our responsible sourcing policies and supplier standards.
Monitoring and follow-up
Approved ingredients, suppliers and production processes remain subject to risk-based monitoring. This can include document review, sampling, laboratory analysis, audits and investigation of irregularities. Where a potential non-conformity is identified, follow-up may include additional evidence, corrective action, suspension or withdrawal of approval, depending on the finding and applicable procedure.
