“With two licenses RIMFROST will have two krill trawlers operating in Antarctica. These vessels will be equipped with new, patented and innovative solutions for harvesting and processing krill. In addition to production of oil for human consumption we will produce protein-hydrolysates, protein powders and expand into new areas such as aquaculture feed market as well as the pet food market.
