PROBOTIC ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF MABIT-FUNDED PROJECT ON BIOLOGICAL IMPACT OF NET CLEANING

Probotic announces successful completion of MABIT-funded project on biological impact of net cleaning. Probotic, a leading innovator in the aquaculture industry, is proud to announce the successful completion of a MABIT-funded project titled “Biological Effects of Net Cleaning with High-Pressure Water vs. Probotics Innovation.” The project aimed to investigate the biological conditions during net cleaning and confirm that Probotic’s technology does not harm fish health.

In collaboration with Akvaplan Niva, Ballangen Sjøfarm, and Cermaq, the study analysed fish behaviour, gill health, and fouling communities during net cleaning. The results show that Probotic’s robot had no adverse effects on fish mortality or appetite compared to traditional high-pressure water cleaning methods.

The study highlights the need for larger-scale projects to obtain more reliable data. Probotic is committed to continuous improvement and research to understand better the impact of net cleaning on fish health and the environment.

Probotic extends its gratitude to all project partners, including Cermaq and Ballangen Sjøfarm for providing test facilities and resources, Akvaplan Niva for delivering outstanding research and insightful reports, and Mabit for co-funding the project.
