Aquaculture: optimal water for production

Keeping control over the quality and quantity of your water is essential for aquaculture in order to have the highest yield at the lowest costs. Weather it is fish, shrimps, algae or whatever food you grow, we offer you high quality water storage solutions for growing your products.

Fish farming or pisciculture

Fish farming or pisciculture, falls under aquaculture and is the fastest growing form of food production in the world. It is a form of aquaculture in which fish are farmed to be sold as food. Worldwide different species are being farmed, depending on factors as local climate, water conditions, market demand and farming facilities. Species that are often cultivated are shrimps, catfish, tilapia, sturgeon, algae, crabs, carps, eel, pangasius and more. It is done in pens out at sea but high-tech land based fish farms are getting more popular.

Advantages of fish farming in steel water tanks

Raising aquatic animals in controlled environments using tanks is getting more popular over the use of open ponds or farming out at sea. Our metal water tanks are often used in fish farms due to the many benefits they offer. They offer great advantages:

  • High control over water quality and parameters
    With filtration and aeration systems, optimal conditions ensure fish growth and health. Also, there is control of all materials entering the water and there is no connection to open sea. The tanks can be connected to filtration systems. Temperature can also be controlled; the temperature of the area and water.
  • The flow pattern and circulation is better in circular tanks
    They also ensure there is no collected water and pollution in corners.
  • Climate resilience
    Our modular tanks can be placed inside, so they will not be affected by wind or sun. They also can be installed inland, avoiding harsh weather in coastal areas.
  • Modular design, easy to transport and fast and easy to install. Also easy to disassemble and to move
  • The modular design allows for scalability, making the tanks suitable for farms of different sizes
  • Less waste of water and nutrition thanks to the closed system
  • Feeding and harvesting operations require less time and labor compared to ponds
  • High capacity on small area
    Using space efficiently and besides, tanks are more suitable for areas with limited land available or unsuitable soil conditions.
  • Durably coated with long lifetime
  • Lining material is suitable for contact with consumables
  • Safety for fish and man!
    • Low maintenance cost

    Properties of steel fish tanks

    Our modular tanks are made to measure and can be manufactured and finished in various ways with various optional extras. It is our mission to meet the specific demands of any customer.

    • Modular steel water tanks
    • High quality corrugated steel
    • Food grade lining materials; liners don’t give substances to water or creature
    • Different heights
      For different species, different heights and diameters are preferred. We offer a wide range of sizes.
    • Completable with accessoiries and connections

    Extra protection options for the tanks

    In fish farming there uses to be a great deal of work activity and splash water around the water tanks. When desired, extra protection to the tanks can be realised:

    • Durable coating of the metal panels for extending lifetime
    • Possibility to increase the metal thickness
    • Possibility to overlap the liner over the edge

    Vertical farming

    When land is scarce, vertical farming is the solution for optimal yields. Higher tanks give higher efficiency at small areas.

    Raceways

    NPI offers affordable and modular systems for raceways in any desired dimension. It is easy to transport and fast to install. All raceways can be produced to your specific requirements.

    Safety first

    Not only the quality of your water is important, but also the system needs to be save. Both for you as for your products. All our liner materials are suitable for contact with consumption goods. The materials do not give any substances to the water that can possibly pollute your water and they are very fish-friendly. Besides, all our tanks are certified and designed minimum 40% stronger than required for the storage of water, which is absolutely essential in aquaculture.
