NEW ZEALAND GREENSHELL MUSSELS FROM MARLBOROUGH
Renewable, High quality, Raw Materials
Only sustainable, natural raw materials from New Zealand, one of the cleanest growing environments in the world are used in the manufacture of our specialty ingredients.
We scour the country to source only the best of those raw materials for conversion into our high quality natural ingredients.
The manufacture of premium nutritional ingredients begins with using only the highest quality raw materials sourced from New Zealand’s pristine natural environment.
All raw materials are collected according to New Zealand MPI regulations ensuring they are export eligible and fit for human consumption.
All raw materials used by Waitaki in the manufacture of our products are environmentally responsible and renewable.
TRACEABILITY
All biological ingredients follow a carefully documented chain from collection of raw materials through to manufacture, transport and arrival at a destination port. Biosecurity is a vital part of the New Zealand economy and is why we lead the way in traceability of animal and marine derived ingredients.
LICENSING
The Waitaki Biosciences manufacturing plant, where PernaTec™ products are manufactured, is one of only a handful of multi-licensed meat, marine and shellfish processing facilities in New Zealand.
