Safcol No Nets Tuna

What makes Safcol No Nets Tuna Responsible?

Many marine species are in danger of being wiped out because many tuna brands source fish caught with ‘Fish Aggregating Devices’ (FADs) and purse-seine nets that when used together will haul up everything including turtles, baby sharks and stingrays. Safcol was the first major brand available in grocery supermarkets to introduce responsible fishing into the Australian market, back in May 2011, a move that influenced change by other brands in the industry. Safcol has made a pledge to do everything possible to protect the health of our oceans. So now you can enjoy great tasting tuna and protect fragile marine life. Tuna that’s caught one fish at a time with NO NETS! Available in the following flavours: - Lemon & Pepper - In Oil - In Springwater - In Oil with Chilli

Evidence

Protect the future of vulnerable marine life

Production

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.

Evidence

Highly Selective – caught by hand one at a time

Production

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

Production

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.
