Graintec, ImpactMarine signs RAS partnership

Global aquaculture technology provider, Graintec AS, and Swiss-controlled aquaculture environment solutions firm, ImpactMarine, have signed an agreement to jointly develop an international portfolio of recirculating aquaculture system (RAS)  facilities.

The companies plan to develop and deliver a minimum of four facilities.

Graintec is a world leading supplier of aquaculture technology. The company has designed and delivered aqua feed factories and feeding solutions to the commercial aquaculture industry for more than two decades.

ImpactMarine is developing controlled-environment aquaculture facilities using RAS technology.

The business has ongoing projects  in the eastern Mediterranean, Oceania and Southern Africa.

“The cooperation will provide Graintec with early mover access to new markets for RAS and a partner for the joint development, testing and deployment of future technologies, as well as a committed pipeline of projects,” said Michael Mortensen, chief executive officer of Graintec.

“Having a long-term agreement with Graintec provides ImpactMarine with access to industry leading expertise in RAS and will also ensure that we are able not only to deliver our immediate plans but also that both we and Graintec are seen as leaders of the blue revolution over the coming years,” said David Hampton, CEO of ImpactMarine.
