ORIVO is a laboratory company located in Norway, with partnering labs strategically located around the world. Through a lab test based on a fingerprinting technology, we offer a verification service to the marine ingredients industry. Our service is mainly aimed at the ingredient producers and brand owners, and we deliver a unique verification of the authenticity of a marine ingredient, either in the form of a certificate or as a verification seal on finished products. The ORIVO seal on a product is a guarantee that the product is: 1. Made of real marine sources (such as salmon oil, salmon meal, anchovy oil, cod liver oil, krill oil) 2. From a specific region (such as Norway, Alaska, Peru, Iceland, New Zealand etc.) A very important part of our concept is to make sure that we test the same product as you buy. The ORIO seal is therefore based on testing of products which our third party inspectors are buying in the shop - in addition to continuous sampling from the brand owner´s production.
