Hofseth’s bioactive peptide ingredients, in addition to its R&D efforts, are credited for the recognition. 34 clinical studies and patents support the ingredients, while 48 health claims from US FDA, Health Canada and EFSA can be marketed with them.

Our products are the most sustainable and traceable marine ingredients available globally. We believe their potential is amplified through our innovative research platform, which can identify new health benefits from marine ingredients with proven commercial significance”.
