REGAL SPRINGS TILAPIA

Environmentally and Socially Balanced

Regal Springs is proud to be the first aquafarm in the world to earn the International Standards for Responsible Tilapia Aquaculture (ISRTA), a rigorous standard that ranks fish farms on seven environmental and social impacts principles. Led by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), the world’s leading conservation organization, the ISRTA’s high standards were created by those in the industry.

The ISRTA agreement steers the growing fish farming industry to protect water from pollution, the spread of diseases and ensure fair labor practices. Fish farms are ranked on:

  • Compliance with local, regional and national laws
  • Conservation of natural habitat and local biodiversity
  • Care and preservation of water resources
  • Protection of species diversity and wild populations
  • Responsible use of resources
  • Proper management of fish health and welfare in an environmentally responsible manner
  • Social responsibility toward workers and communities.

Regal Springs was found to meet or exceed these criteria. The complete standard can be found HERE www.worldwildlife.org/what/globalmarkets/aquaculture/WWFBinaryitem14693.pdf
