Why isn closed containment technology more widely used?
Closed containment technology is developing rapidly and is being used for salmon and many other types of fish. With increasing demand for sustainable seafood we expect to see an increasing shift towards adoption of closed containment technology. The existing net pen industry has resisted changes to their farming practices and business model. This resistance is coming at a cost to our environment and wild fish, which is one of the reasons supporting the closed containment salmon available in the marketplace now is so important.
