Hailia Nordic is a Finnish seafood-tech company working to rethink the utilization of raw materials from fish processing. The company has developed innovative solutions that make it possible to transform sidestreams from fish filleting into new, sustainable, ready-to-eat food products of high quality.
Using advanced technology and specially developed processes, Hailia helps the seafood industry get more value from every fish. Parts that have traditionally been underutilized or considered waste can instead be turned into valuable, texturized food products with commercial potential.
In collaboration with partners, Hailia has already developed and launched eight commercial products based entirely on sidestreams from fish. These products are now available in retail, wholesale, and as ingredients in ready meals.
A key partnership with the Danish company Dana Technology enables the combination of specialized machinery, processing methods, recipes, and licensing models. This allows seafood processors to implement Hailia’s solutions directly in their own production facilities and create new product lines locally.
Hailia’s contribution to a more sustainable food system:
- Increases food yield from typically around 70% to up to 90%
- Significantly reduces food waste
- Creates opportunities for new, innovative food products
