Veramaris has partnered with Merwetank B.V. to construct a bulk algae oil storage tank in Dordrecht, the Netherlands. Planned to be operational from mid-Q4 2025, the facility will enhance supply security and logistics efficiency for Veramaris customers.

The new tank will improve supply security for its customers in Europe by allowing more Veramaris algae oil to be shipped in bulk, alongside other high-volume raw materials, directly to coastal aquafeed factories, reducing costs, complexity, and carbon emissions.

Merwetank, a specialist in food-grade bulk logistics, will operate the tank, which includes advanced features to preserve product quality and integrity.

Holger Kinzel, CFO of Veramaris, stated: “This new setup brings our product much closer to customers’ existing supply chains. It’s a great example of how we’re scaling up with our partners to support bulk deliveries and the continued growth of sustainable aquaculture.”

Veramaris is the first in the industry to offer bulk storage and support bulk delivery of algae oil at this scale. The product holds FAMI-QS certification, underscoring the company’s commitment to quality, safety, and transparency. In addition, Merwetank is FSSC 22000 and GMP+ certified, ensuring the highest standards across the entire supply chain.

Wout de Jong, Director at Merwetank, mentioned: “Our journey with Veramaris has been one of genuine partnership and collaboration. We chose to work with them not only because we believe in their mission, but also because we trust their commitment, innovation, and integrity. This is a partnership built on shared values and a vision for long-term success together.”
