W Freshly sourced
AlaskOmega starts with wild caught Alaskan pollock sustainably harvested from the cold, pure waters of the Bering Sea. The wild Alaskan pollock fishery is one of the largest, most sustainable and best managed fisheries for human consumption in the world. Within hours of being caught, the fish oil is extracted from wild Alaskan pollock trimmings, meaning the raw material is of the highest quality.
The oil is placed in airtight containers and shipped to Wiley’s certified GMP facility, in the rolling hills of central Ohio. There it is meticulously refined through a careful purification and concentration process, using inert gas to ensure freshness and quality. This is where Wiley’s decades of expertise in distillation and separations really shines. By developing innovative products with the aim of helping make the world’s population healthier, AlaskOmega offers high-potency omega-3 and omega-7 concentrates to the global market.
