El informe muestra una reducción de CO2 del 94%  

FAROE ISLANDS, 19 de noviembre de 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- El productor de salmón del Atlántico, Hiddenfjord ha anunciado la suspensión de toda la carga aérea a partir del 10-10-2020. Este cambio ha reducido las emisiones de CO2 del transporte exterior de Hiddenfjord en un 94%, según lo informado por la organización de investigación independiente noruega SINTEF. El transporte aéreo es un importante contribuyente a las emisiones mundiales de CO2 y emite alrededor de 50 veces  más CO2 que el transporte marítimo. Hiddenfjord es el primero en la industria acuícola en comprometerse con este tamaño y alcance, disminuyendo significativamente su impacto ambiental en línea con el Objetivo Mundial de las Naciones Unidas 13.  sobre la acción climática urgente.

A recent report (2020) from the Norwegian independent research organization, SINTEF, shows that freight carried by air produces around 50 times (dependent of flight type/distance) more CO2 than transoceanic sea freight. Research from SINTEF shows that Hiddenfjord has reduced carbon emissions from overseas transportation by 94% as a result.
Hiddenfjord is a global pioneer of stress-free harvesting in the open seas around the Faroe Islands, preserving their salmon’s great taste and firm texture. No antibiotics or hormones are used, and all Hiddenfjord Atlantic salmon products are GLOBALG.A.P-certified.
For decades Hiddenfjord has moved its farming activities to more exposed locations with stronger currents and higher waves, where salmon is raised in pens placed in exposed locations to obtain the best living conditions for the salmon.

For decades Hiddenfjord has moved its farming activities to more exposed locations with stronger currents and higher waves, where salmon is raised in pens placed in exposed locations to obtain the best living conditions for the salmon.

El salmón ya tiene una huella de carbono mucho menor que otros alimentos animales como la carne de cerdo o la carne de vacuno, pero la sustitución de la carga aérea por carga marítima lo convierte en una opción de alimento muy sostenible.

"Los hechos son claros, todos tenemos que dejar de utilizar inmediatamente aviones para transportar mercancías con el fin de reducir el cambio climático", afirma Atli Gregersen, director administrativo y propietario. Y añade que "esta fue una decisión difícil para nosotros- sabíamos que podría significar precios más bajos y un riesgo mucho más alto debido a la menor flexibilidad para llegar a mercados lejanos. Pero éticamente, es absolutamente la decisión correcta. Si afirmamos que queremos ser una empresa verdaderamente sostenible, debemos tomar medidas responsables."

Nueva investigación independiente del consumidor muestra que el salmón Hiddenfjord ha mantenido la misma calidad, a pesar de la terminación del flete aéreo por parte de la compañía.

"Incluso si la suspensión del flete aéreo ha sido un gran cambio para muchos de nuestros clientes, estábamos muy contentos de poder demostrar que podíamos mantener nuestra conocida alta calidad, ahora con una huella de CO2 mucho menor. Vemos un buen crecimiento en las cifras de ventas, y el producto está atrayendo el interés de nuevos clientes centrándose en la sostenibilidad", explica Ili Hansen, director de ventas de Hiddenfjord.

La alta calidad mantenida se atribuye principalmente a tres factores significativos:

Durante miles de años, el salmón del Atlántico ha emigrado de los ríos que fluyen hacia el Océano Atlántico Norte hasta el mar alrededor de las Islas Feroe para alimentarse y crecer y se ha adaptado a las condiciones de las aguas de la región. Este entorno prístino caracterizado por temperaturas estables del mar durante todo el año entre 6-11 °C y un régimen regional específico de luz diurna en las Islas Feroe es el hogar natural del salmón del Atlántico.

El salmón Hiddenfjord se cría en la naturaleza, en corrales colocados en sitios expuestos con olas altas y fuertes corrientes que proporcionan las condiciones naturales de vida perfectas para el salmón del Atlántico, al mismo tiempo que se evita la contaminación de los fondos marinos. Hiddenfjord es el productor de salmón que cría salmón en las condiciones más duras del mundo.

Hiddenfjord utiliza un concepto único de cría sin estrés que utiliza el instinto natural del salmón para nadar contra la corriente. Se guía desde el mar abierto hasta la cuenca de cosecha y se aturde sin estrés.

Acerca de Hiddenfjord

Hiddenfjord es un productor de salmón de las Islas Feroe en el Atlántico Norte, una empresa familiar que data de 1929. Como empresa independiente, se permite a Hiddenfjord tener un enfoque idealista en la sostenibilidad sin la presión constante de los accionistas sobre los beneficios a corto plazo. La eliminación de carga aérea de Hiddenfjord y el uso de lugares expuestos a salmón de granja son ejemplos del enfoque de la compañía en la sostenibilidad. Todos los productos de salmón Hiddenfjord son certificados GLOBALG.A.P.
