BioMar’s Blue Impact feed represents a significant step forward for Caviar d’Aquitaine. Developed to meet the highest regional and industry standards, Blue Impact feed reduces reliance on scarce marine resources, incorporates circular and restorative raw materials, and minimises the carbon footprint of feed production through responsible sourcing.

This transformative approach supports sustainable farming practices while maintaining the exceptional quality that has made Caviar d’Aquitaine a globally respected name in caviar production.
The adoption of Blue Impact feed also includes rigorous monitoring to ensure compliance with animal welfare regulations and environmental standards. This transparent and accountable approach not only reinforces consumer confidence but also sets a new precedent for the future of aquaculture.
