Background

North Marine Ingredients roots back to the year 1999 and is based on the scientific work developed by North Ltd.

The main objective of North ltd. was to apply cold adaptive enzyme technology into the food industry.

North Ltd. gained valuable knowledge in utilizing cold active enzymes from codfish to produce fish protein hydrolysate, knowledge which is now solely in the possession of North Marine Ingredients.

New technology 

With new process technology developed at North Marine Ingredients we can now produce products suitable for human consumption and for nutraceutical applications. We use a gentle, low-temperature production process that preserves all the important qualities of fresh raw materials form the pristine waters of the North Atlantic.

Patented process

In the patent pending production process, digestive enzymes from the North Atlantic Codfish (Gadus morhua) are used to extract proteins from raw seafood. The whole process takes place under controlled conditions and materials are subject to low temperatures only in order to preserve the delicate natural characteristics of the seafood. No artificial additives are used, giving our product the highest purity and natural qualities.
