Public authorities and various fishing organisations in Sweden (such as Fiskeriverket, Svensk Fisk and Djupfrysningsbyrån) are our natural partners. Also part of our network are organisations such as MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) and KRAV, an important and well-known organisation in the organic market in Sweden!
MSC (Marine Stewardship Council) is a non-profit, global organisation that makes a key contribution to solving the global problem of overfishing. It is supported by charities and businesses around the world. MSC rewards responsible fishing with a clear ecolabel. The label guarantees that the product comes from well-managed fisheries and that it has not contributed to overfishing. Read more at http://www.msc.org/
Seafood carrying ASC-labeling (Aquaculture Stewardship Council) comes from farms that have been independently certified in accordance with ASC´s standard to include respecting the environment and comply with guidelines on food additives and social conditions. Read more at www.asc-aqua.org
KRAV is a control body of organic products. Its criteria cover farming and production. Lobster Seafood is an authorised retailer of food products marked with KRAV ecolabel. We also work closely with KRAV-certified producers. Read more at www.Krav.se
Europalövet is the EU label for organic products and may be used if the food contains at least 95 percent organically produced ingredients. The organic label may only be used on products approved by a control body; in Sweden, KRAV is the approved body. As of 1 July 2010, using the new organic logo on pre-packed food products is compulsory within the EU.
Naturland shows that the product complies with the latest EU regulations and requirements for organic production. The farming method takes particular account of the local environment, and organically certified feed is used. Read more at www.naturland.de
Närfiskat is a label that guarnatees that the product is caught by Swedish fishing boats within the approved quotas and are traceable along the chain, from the fishing boats to fish traders. This means that all parts of the production chain must be members of Närfiskat - fishing boats, wholesale, retail/restaurant - if the product is to be sold as a Närfiskat product.
