Antarctic krill oil is a red mixture of lipid extracted from Antarctic krill at low temperature, with a variety of bioactive ingredients, rich in phospholipid state eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid and other ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, compared with traditional EPA and DHA supplements such as fish oil, Antarctic krill oil has higher nutritional value.
Antarctic krill oil is a new natural Marine source of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids, containing phospholipids, EPA, DHA, astaxanthin, vitamins, trace elements and other bioactive substances, with anti-inflammatory properties and immune functions.
Antarctic krill oil has a unique phospholipid structure, which is the same as the phospholipid bilayer structure of human cell membrane, and is easier to be absorbed by cells than n-3 with a triglyceride structure (such as fish oil).
n-3 LCPUFA such as EPA/DHA in Antarctic krill oil are mostly in the form of phospholipids, which have good bioavailability and physiological activity.

“Our in-house lab test results consistently match their COA data. Fast stock availability and flexible batch sizes greatly simplify our production scheduling.”
WellForm Health Inc. (Florida, USA)
“Finding a reliable supplier of Antarctic krill oil with traceable fishery documents and ready spot stock was challenging. This vendor rescued our project from a serious compliance and delivery delay risk last season.”
NovaNutra Supplements (Vancouver, Canada)
Unlike standard fish oil where omega-3s are bonded to triglycerides, Antarctic krill oil delivers EPA and DHA in a phospholipid form identical to human cell membrane bilayers, allowing significantly higher bioavailability and cellular absorption.
Our Antarctic krill oil is extracted at low temperatures directly from raw Antarctic krill, effectively preserving heat-sensitive bioactive compounds such as astaxanthin, natural phospholipids, and polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Yes, every batch undergoes comprehensive testing covering physical parameters, active phospholipid/EPA/DHA percentages, stability indices, microbial limits, and heavy metals to ensure complete compliance.
We offer flexible packaging including 1kg sealed double plastic and aluminum foil bags for sample evaluation, as well as 10kg, 25kg, or larger bulk volumes shipped in sealed industrial drums or cartons.
Store sealed in a cool, dry, and dark environment away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to protect phospholipid integrity and prevent lipid peroxidation.
