Quality

Freshness & Quality

• Leader in freshness (harvesting 5 days/week)
• Juveniles from own hatchery
• Antibiotic and GMO free products
• Supreme standards in processing
• Traceability from broodstock to final product

Nutritional excellence

Thanks to our own fish feed recipe, Omega-3 /Omega-6 fatty acids ratio of Cromaris fish is one of the top in the industry which makes our fish nutritionally superior to majority of competitors on the Meditteranean fish market.

Cromaris fish is:

• Rich in Omega-3 fatty acids
• Rich in proteins, phosphorus and vitamin D
• Source of Vitamin E

Unique taste

• Cromaris has received the Superior Taste Award 2025 for all five of its tested products: sea bass, sea bream, meagre,
• Cromaris Sea bass, has been awarded three gold stars for the seventh year in a row, making it the only recipient of the prestigious Diamond Taste Award.
• Cromaris sensory team regularly makes the organoleptic tests of Cromaris and other fish in order to improve the taste and general quality of Cromaris products

Sustainability

• Responsible farming (ASC and GlobalGAP certified)
• Fish feed from sustainable sources
• No copper coating used on our nets
• Monitoring & reducing energy consumption and GHG emission

Animal welfare

• Farming of the native species only
• Specially selected locations in the Adriatic sea (high sea water quality)
• Low density cages, with highest standard of zoohygenic conditions
• The fish grows slowly as nature intended ( ≤ 18 months)

Chemical Lab

• The analysis are conducted for the total amount of fat in fish meat and the composition as well as the amount of high and low saturated fatty acids (omega -3, omega-6, EPA and DHA)
• Fats in fish on each cage at the beginning of the fishing period are monitored qualitatively and quantitatively, as well as on experimentally fish feed and competitors’ products.
• We determine the fatty acid profile of fish depending on the type of fish, location, type of fish feed
• Analysis are performed according to ISO standards.

Microbiological Lab

• Regular control of growth and types of microorganisms in the processing facility and on equipment
• Regular health control of products
• Regular control of hygiene in processing facility

Fish feed Lab

• Laboratory is equipped with the state-of-the-art device that by using an analyzer determines chemical and nutritional composition of the fish feed. Data from the analyzer is entered into a nutritional software that balances the fish needs with the fish feed raw materials
• Control of chemical and physical parameters of each LOT of fish feed
• Control of chemical parameters – nutritional composition (proteins, fats, fiber, ash) and moisture
• Control of physical parameters – fat separation, buoyancy, length and diameter of pellets and their strength as well as smell and color of fish feed
