Aquasorgal achieves ASC Feed Standard certification from DNV

Aquasorgal, a Portuguese brand within Grupo Soja de Portugal, has achieved ASC Feed Standard certification from DNV. It positions the company as a trusted, certified partner for aquaculture farms and producers.

Aquasorgal focuses on the development, production and marketing of integrated feed solutions for aquaculture species, combining scientific knowledge, technical expertise and production capabilities.

The certification recognises that Aquasorgal’s feed production system meets requirements covering responsible sourcing, traceability, environmental performance and social responsibility throughout the supply chain. This enables Aquasorgal to produce ASC-conforming aquafeeds, supporting customers that need to comply with ASC certification requirements.

For Aquasorgal, the certification builds on a long-term strategy focused on supply chain control and transparency, careful selection of raw materials, food safety, nutritional performance and continuous improvement of its production processes.

“With this certification, Aquasorgal strengthens its ability to support customers in navigating the evolving requirements of global aquaculture markets while continuing to deliver what remains fundamental to its business: consistent nutrition, reliable supply and long-term partnership,” said António Isidoro, CEO of Aquasorgal.

The origin, availability and responsible sourcing of marine, plant-based and animal-derived raw materials are increasingly critical to both nutritional performance and sustainability. Aquasorgal’s objective is to combine these requirements while maintaining the consistency, reliability and nutritional quality expected by professional aquaculture producers.
