DEFRA approves Kiotech's risk assessment for aquatic products
 
Press Release
 
 

Aquaculture company Kiotech, which makes products used in the farming of fish, has had an environmental risk assessment of its Aquatice range of products reviewed and approved by the UK's Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra).

 
This review and approval by Defra should help to simplify and shorten the normally complex and extended regulatory approval process for new additives. The approval should be particularly useful in the important Asian and Latin America markets, which account for around 80 percent of world aquaculture production.
 
Kiotech's chief executive Richard Edwards said, ''This endorsement by Defra is a further significant and encouraging step along the road to obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals which will allow Kiotech to commence sales of its technology.'
