"Sustainable  aquaculture  is  the  mission that underlies all of Cermaq’s operations.  Cermaq  makes substantial investments in Aquaculture Research and Development every year. This focus on R&D puts Cermaq at the forefront of  product  and environmental innovations and ensures that Sustainability is always prioritised in the development of new technologies.

All  Mainstream operations work within local environmental rules, ensuring that licenses do not exceed their sustainable capacities. Continuing close communication  with  customers  and authorities in all export countries is translated  into better monitoring practices of live fish stocks and final products, ensuring food safety and customer satisfaction.

We  accept  that  we  have a responsibility not only to ensure sustainable farming  operations,  but  also  to  provide  adequate documentation which clearly  demonstrates this. Mainstream has a clear remit to operate within all  applicable  laws and regulations, and to produce food products of the highest quality.

In  general,  improved procedures have contributed to further reduction of emissions  of  organic  waste,  fatty  substances  and  spillage  from the processing plant in Chile.

All Mainstream plants have installed systems for monitoring and control of seabed  pollution. This ensures, among other things, compliance with local environmental requirements regarding utilization of licences".
