On-board proccesing plants

• Vacuum pumping the fish improves the efficiency of all fish handling processes, from the sea to the container.
• By applying slurry ice fish is cooled effectively.
• Automatic classification by size.
• Ergonomic packaging systems.
• Systems for lifting boxes from the hold.

• No brailing.
• No shovelling.
• No crushing or transporting of ice.

Increased fish-catching ability:

• Because the net does not have to be hauled on board the whole catch can be used, meaning the net does not have to be cast again that day.
• The speed of emptying the net is increased with respect to brailing.

Improved quality gives the fish a longer useful life, meaning more demanding markets can be accessed.

Quality
We improve the quality of the fish’s health and hygiene:

• The fish does not touch the floor or non-food contact surfaces.
• We guarantee all the fish is cooled quickly.
• When the fish is delivered to the market, it has already been classified.

Safety on board

• Eliminating brailing means the vessel can be kept completely shut while the most risky operation is in process.
• The pumping process enables the fish to be loaded directly inside the hold, providing the vessel with greater stability.

Improved working conditions

• Arduous tasks such as loading boxes, shoveling the fish, crushing ice, etc. are eliminated.
• Ergonomic work posts: All the fish is handled at a height of 1 m, thus preventing having to work in unhealthy positions.

• Vacuum pumping system with a pumping capacity of 100 m3/hour from the rig to the hold and from there, to the reservoir.
• Roller classifiers for up to 20 tonnes/hour and 3 sizes.
• Slurry ice generators.
• Slurry ice storage tanks and a hose distribution system.
• Hydraulic service lifts.
• Processing lines.
