Akvapartner AS

Akvapartner Jul 26 Design uten navn (16)
Akvapartner's Solar Cell Automat takes hand feeding off the crew through the critical smolt phase. It mounts on the cage handrail in five minutes and dispenses a few grams evenly, around the clock, keeping FCR low without overfeeding. Solar-powered, it needs no cabling and draws nothing from the site's supply, running up to three weeks on battery.
Four to six per cage replace hand feeding entirely. Highly Commended for Innovation at the 2026 Aquaculture Awards. Designed and built in Norway.

World Feeds

world feeds jul 26

VAF Marine Feedblocks can be used for a variety of marine species, serving as a complete diet for cleaner fish or a supplementary feed for other marine species supporting fish welfare.

The blocks maintain their integrity in water for up to 48 hours, encouraging natural grazing behaviour. This allows larger fish to become satiated, giving smaller fish the opportunity to feed. As a result, aggression during feeding is reduced. 

We also produce unique soft-sinking broodstock pellets for selected marine species.
