AKVA Net Cleaners uses rotating cleaning discs monted on cleaning rigs in various shapes and combinations. We use rugged, tailor-made high-pressure pumps to drive the cleaning discs. The cleaning process starts with submerging the rig on the inside of the net, using only sea water under high pressure. Our Cleaning Systems does not use chemicals or scrubbing action. This is environmentally friendly and will not damage the nets.
