Australian Marine Conservation Society says Safcol’s No Net Tuna is only entirely ‘green’ product on a red, amber or green scale.
The Check Your Tuna guide was based on scientific evidence from international regulations and monitoring organisations, independent from government, fishing industry or retailer sources.
Protect the future of vulnerable marine life
Nets entrap and entangle marine life. Turtles, sharks, dolphins and rays, are all victims of net entanglement as well as 110 other marine species. Commercial fishing with nets, also known as ‘purse seine fishing’ is devastating to our oceans and marine life when carried out on a large scale.
Highly Selective – caught by hand one at a time
Our Safcol No Net Tuna Range protects other marine life by catching only the fish we require for canning. Our selective fishing is more responsible and cleaner, protecting other marine life.
Reducing habitat damage
No Net Tuna fishing methods do not touch the sea bed and they, therefore, protect the marine habitat to a greater extent than other fishing methods that destroy the ocean floor.
Reducing the risk of ghost nets
Safcol No Net tuna does not use nets thereby reducing the risk of ghost nets and minimising the impact on our oceans. Ghost nets are fishing nets that have been abandoned, lost or otherwise discarded in the ocean.
