Overview
Tuna processing generates significant by-product volume. Instead of waste, Marine Protein processes it with state-of-the-art enzymatic technology into fish protein hydrolysates with high digestibility and consistent amino-acid profiles.
Hydrolysates act as palatability and nutrition boosters in aquafeed and pet food, and as biostimulants in agriculture — markets that increasingly demand documented sustainability, which our integrated, traceable supply provides.
Production runs in Montecristi alongside the group's other plants, under the same management system, with specifications agreed per customer and application.
Applications & formats
Aquafeed
Palatability and attractant ingredient for shrimp and fish diets.

Frequently asked questions
What raw material do you use?
By-products of the group's own tuna processing — a fully traceable, single-species-dominant stream rather than mixed market waste.
Which applications are proven?
Aquafeed palatants, pet food ingredients and agricultural biostimulants are the main commercial applications today.
How are specifications set?
Per customer and application: protein level, degree of hydrolysis and format are agreed contractually with supporting lot analysis.
