Strong, durable galvanised steel tanks for fish rearing
Aquaculture is the breeding of fish in a closed environment. More and more farmers are now choosing to use galvanised steel tanks to meet the increasing demand to rear fish in a sustainable and cost effective manner. We provide a range of galvanised steel tanks to suit your specific needs and budget.
Aquaculture involves the breeding, raising and harvesting of plants or animals in water, in the case of our tanks this tends to be fish. This can involve fish, shellfish and algae.
In the UK, aquaculture tanks are predominantly used for the farming of salmon but can also be used for harvesting shellfish and algae.
Human demand for aquaculture has doubled in the last thirty years. The UK held 23.2% of the EU aquaculture fisheries and produced 211,568 tonnes of fish in 2015**. Aquaculture now accounts for more than half of the fish supply for human consumption and it has been the world’s fastest growing food producing sector.
