Problem
Overfishing which is turned into fishmeal for feed
Solution
Creating protein made from mycoprotein, or fungi, done with a unique fermentation technique
Potential
Impact for climate. The global fish feed market is worth $60 billion – aquaculture is the world’s fastest-growing food industry, as the global population increases.
Seaqure labs provides a sustainable mycelium ingredient alternative to fishmeal and soybean meal in aquaculture feed, preserving ocean fish populations as well as reducing the dependency on producing soy in the Amazon rainforest, while enhancing fish health with probiotic benefits. To do this, Seaqure labs have developed a proprietary fermentation technology utilizing Solid-state fermentation, as well as a method for the pre- and post-treatment of different sidestreams from the food and agri sector. Our fungi ingredient has already been proven to be healthy and prebiotic in lab trials on Rainbow Trout, and there are large opportunities to enter the Pet food segment as well as functional food ingredients in the future.

Blue Foods covering very diverse foods harvested from aquatic resources can have a meaningful contribution in our transition to a healthy and sustainable future food system. However, up to 70% of processed blue foods escapes the food value chain as side streams which goes to animal feed or waste.
AquaFood provides technologies for upcycling of these valuable side streams back to human food chain. The unique technology upcycles seafood side steams into multiple high value products such as gel-forming proteins, omega-3 rich oils, marine collagens, chitin, etc., for food, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical application.
The technology, which is run at cold, can deal with the complex and sensitive nature of aquatic side streams and valorize them to high quality and functional marine ingredients. AquaFood’s technologies provide a holistic approach for increasing resource efficiency and sustainability in blue food chain.
