Circular Fish Pens

 

Seafarm Systems specialises in circular poly fish pens, ranging from 30 metre circumference with 220 metre circumference being the largest to date. Our Aquasure pens are located in over ten countries around the world.

Their construction is designed to flex with the forces of the sea, providing a robust platform with easy access but with increased strength to withstand the rigours of more exposed waters.

Flotation Collars

 

Floatation collars ranging from 250mm to 500mm diameter are made from virgin HDPE pipe. Our unique HDPE stanchions have no continuous seams or joints and are designed and rotomolded in our factories. A number of different styles of stanchions are available to suit individual sites, species and farmer requirements.

These unique stanchions mean we can personalise pen design to include equal or differential flotation, net hooks, bird pole brackets, walkways and other extras to suit our customer’s needs. We can also supply steel stanchions, bird pole supports and mooring points as required.

Net Weights and Net Weight Hooks

Net Weights

We produce a HDPE rotationally moulded shell, which can be filled with either concrete or a combination of concrete and steel shot. Currently manufactured in a variety of sizes from 50kg to 250kg but able to be customised to individual requirements. Net weights can be provided with associated hardware and ropes for ease of installation.

Net Weight Hooks

Net Weight Hooks are an innovative system for attaching individual net weights to nets from the sea surface without the use of divers. The advantage with net weight hooks is the full weight is applied directly to the net and is secured close to the baseline of the net. This means that smaller weights can be used and that the system is effective in shallow sites.

The standard weight is approximately 100kg, but trials have been carried out successfully with 3.5 tonne weights attached to the base of cone nets. Over 5,000 Net Weight Hooks have been supplied globally.

NET CLEANING - MIC 2.0

 

MIC’s innovative, vacuum-based design creates the cleanest and healthiest pen environment. MIC thoroughly removes debris from all parts of the net in a single pass, pumping it away at a safe distance from the pen environment. With the addition of MIC’s revolutionary filter system, debris can also be collected on board your vessel, for safe disposal elsewhere.

Vacuum Based Cleaner

 

MIC is a revolutionary, vacuum-based net cleaning system, delivering the most thorough and efficient net cleaning solution on the market today.

Mortality Collector

Creates a healthier environment in sea cages and ensures fast, easy and safe removal of dead fish. It reduces risk of net attacks from predators like seals and sharks and is easy to install and uninstall, without divers and with fish still in the nets.

MORTALITY COLLECTORS

We offer airlift solutions for collection of mortality. Rotationally moulded from high density polyethylene, provides corrosion resistance reduces fouling and can be adapted to fit farm infrastructure, cage nets and local current conditions.

Our mortality removal systems are designed for and tested in extreme conditions at some of the most demanding and exposed fish farms globally.
