Description

ANTARCTIC KRILL, Euphausia superba

The unique properties of krill and the oil extracted from it depend on the ecosystem in which it lives, what it feeds on, and how it is harvested.

Krill swarms can be as long as six kilometres (approx. 3 miles) in length and have a density of up to one million individuals per cubic meter (approx. 35 cubic feet) [1]. Antarctic krill are low on the food chain, so they don’t consume and therefore accumulate heavy metals and contaminants to the degree that other marine species do (i.e., fish). Further, the relatively sparse commercial activity in the Southern Ocean significantly contributes to the purity of krill’s environment.
