Hailia Pulled Small Fish
We calculated the carbon footprint of Pulled Small Fish for the year 2024 by estimating the consumption of raw materials, utilities, and packaging materials in our process. We also included emissions from the water used in the process cleaning and its heating. In the calculation, emissions were assessed up to the factory gate. Hailia Pulled Small Fish is an easy-to-use, mild-tasting fish product made from Baltic herring. Pulled Small Fish is suitable for replacing tuna or meat in familiar dishes, from casseroles to sauces. Hailia Pulled Small Fish won the Seafood Innovations competition in the innovative seafood products category in the fall of 2023. The product is gluten-free, dairy-free, and high in protein. It carries the "Hyvää Suomesta" (Good from Finland) label, the Heart Symbol, and the MSC certification.
