R&D - Research and Development
We are constantly engaged in research and development activities, focusing on improvement and innovation. We want to reduce the risk of escape and disease, as well as optimize handling and operation.
Our solutions are safe to use. We invest considerable resources in the verification of new solutions, often in collaboration with the customer, research institutions and other partners. In addition, we emphasize simplifying operations. AKVA group is constantly working on developing products in several areas, as well as testing different designs together with customers.
AKVA group invests major resources in product development and testing of models in cooperation with our customers.
A test tank belonging to SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture is often used in order to improve our knowledge about various designs. The test tank allows simulation of various currents and wave conditions.

Net in 1.0 knot current.
Net in 1.5 knot current.
Testing of materials
Our laboratory is equipped with advanced technological equipment for verifying the characteristics of ropes and other materials. All components are carefully tested and documented before being implemented in any of our products.
New models are carefully documented under various conditions in a flume tank by SINTEF in Denmark.
Detailed small-scale models of net designs are used for testing.
The test tank is also used in cooperation with customers in order to solve challenges related to local operation and the preparation of new working procedures.
