Our Story

Starboard Bio is 100% New Zealand owned.

We start with the best possible animals raised in the purest farming environment in the world.

Our animals are processed in state-of-the-art facilities within New Zealand to the highest food safety standards.

Our Raw Materials

The mild climate in New Zealand enables grass to grow all year round. The animals from which our products are derived are farmed in a free range environment year round, living outside in paddocks grazing on naturally growing grasses.   

The key farming ingredients of clean air, sunshine and good water all combine to produce healthy animals without the need for continuous antibiotics, hormones or growth stimulants.
