Fluctus has signed a contract with Eyvi for delivery of a water feeding system to land-based trout farm Hima Seafood at Rjukan, Norway. In the project, Hima has a strong focus on the environment, and the use of water to transport feed reduces both energy requirements and emissions of microplastics from the feed hoses. In addition, water feeding reduces noise, and less feed crush and dust are expected.

“Fluctus' solution with water feeding ensures the transport of feed in a safe and gentle way with as little pellet crush/waste as possible. The solution seems compact, robust and technically simple. Fluctus has demonstrated good references and test results and we feel confident that the chosen solution is the right one for the project,” said procurement manager at Eyvi, Stefan Dokken.

“We look forward to contributing towards this exciting project and delivering a feeding solution that provides efficient feeding in a sustainable way,” said sales manager at Fluctus, Knut Bjarte Otterlei. “Fluctus has focused on making the system as simple and user-friendly as possible, both with a special water lock and an associated distribution valve. We believe it has given us the market's least complicated water-feeding system and we are experiencing great interest in our solution, both in Norway and abroad.”
