What certifications should sea cage suppliers hold?

For salmon, NS 9415 (Norwegian standard) is de-facto global. For Mediterranean, EN 16606 and site-specific mooring analysis. Feed barges typically require flag-state classification.

Do you cover offshore / high-energy sites?

Yes. We RFQ submersible and semi-submersible cage suppliers with track record on exposed sites — usually paired with dedicated mooring engineering and independent survey.

Can you package cages, nets, feed barges and sensors together?

That is the default — one structured RFQ across all major packages so quotes are directly comparable, and interfaces (feeder → cage → sensors) are pre-aligned.

System types

sea cage farms we source, engineer and finance

HDPE circle cages

Industry standard for exposed nearshore sites; 20–50 m diameter.

Steel modular platforms

High biomass concentration with integrated feed and workboat access.

Submersible offshore cages

Storm-tolerant designs for high-energy exposed sites.

Feed barges & sensor packages

Automated feeders, oxygen sensors, camera systems, biomass estimation.

What the package includes

Scope of engagement

Site survey (currents, waves, bathymetry) & concession review
Cage design and mooring engineering
Net specification (predator, anti-fouling, cleaning strategy)
Feed barge, workboats and sensor suite
Biosecurity, mortality and environmental monitoring plan
Insurance strategy (asset + biological)

Buyer outcomes

What you actually get

Cage & mooring engineered for your site's exact wave and current data
Feed barge sized to biomass and logistics window
Sensor stack matched to regulator and off-taker reporting
Verified quotes from Nordic, Mediterranean and Asian suppliers

Risks we design out of the RFQ

· Under-engineered moorings on exposed sites — insurance killer
· Net cleaning strategy not aligned with local fouling pressure
· Sensor / feed data siloed across incompatible platforms

Expert guidance

What our engineers tell every buyer before signing

Vendor-neutral principles drawn from live sea cage farms projects. Apply these before your RFQ goes out — they change what suppliers can quote.

1
Engineer moorings to the actual site data — never a catalogue
Wave, current and bathymetry surveys must drive mooring design. Under-engineered moorings on exposed sites are the fastest way to lose insurance cover and biomass in a single storm.
2
Right-size the feed barge to biomass, not cage count
Feed barge storage must cover the worst-case logistics window at peak biomass. Under-sizing forces daily deliveries; over-sizing wastes CAPEX and dockage.
3
Unify sensors, feeders and mortality reporting on one platform
Regulators and off-takers increasingly demand a single source of biomass, feed and mortality data. Choose sensor and feeder brands that natively interoperate.

Want these principles applied to your specific site, capacity and off-take before suppliers see anything?
