SCEPT shortlisted for NASF 2026 Sustainability Award
The Seafood Carbon Emissions Profiling Tool (SCEPT), which we developed, has been shortlisted as one of three finalists for the NASF 2026 Sustainability Award.
The award recognises the important work carried out by seafood companies and highlights the vital role sustainability plays across the industry.
The SCEPT, which we designed to support seafood businesses measure, understand and seek to reduce their carbon footprint, has been named among three finalists alongside the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC) and Veramaris.
Pride at nomination
We are incredibly proud that the SCEPT has been shortlisted for this year’s inaugural NASF 2026 Sustainability Award.
By providing seafood businesses with insights into emission risks, or hot-spots, across their supply chains, the tool plays an important role in helping industry take informed steps towards a more sustainable future.
SCEPT’s development, and the parallel exceptional degree of pre-competitive collaboration across the seafood sector, exemplifies what the NASF Sustainability Award seeks to champion: leadership, innovation and long-term strategic vision. Additionally, the SCEPT provides scalability and real-world impact.
By removing barriers to credible carbon measurement and catalysing sector-wide action, it is transforming how the UK seafood sector, and beyond, both understands and can reduce its climate impact - helping to create a more transparent, sustainable and climate-smart global seafood system.
Joint Nomination
The SCEPT nomination has been made jointly between Seafish and the UK Seafood Federation.
Praise for submission standards
The jury commended the high calibre of all submissions, showcasing the significant work being carried out across the seafood industry.
The NASF 2026 Sustainability Award winner will be announced during the Sustainability Summit on Wednesday, 4 March.
