SALfresh® Refined is a 100% natural triglyceride salmon oil where we have used fresh salmon oil directly from the production at Nordlaks before further processing. Through a careful and gentle refining process without any use of chemicals, the salmon oil is converted into an oil with a neutral smell and taste, a pre-requisite for use in the food ingredients industry. The refining process removes any environmental contaminants left in the oil which enables the oil to comply with all regulatory requirements worldwide. The result is a unique oil with advantageous properties, proven through several scientific experiments and tests. Used in correct amount, claims correlated to Omega-3 can be added to the products. The oil is free from allergens and has a smokepoint of 230°C /446°F. It is available in drums of 190 kg each.
