Mowi Unveils State-of-the-Art Post-Smolt Facility in Haukå, Norway, Elevating Sustainable Aquaculture

Global seafood leader Mowi ASA has inaugurated a pioneering post-smolt production facility in Haukå, Norway, marking a significant leap forward in sustainable fish farming and aquaculture technology. This new center is designed to boost both the quantity and quality of Atlantic salmon smolts while reinforcing Mowi’s commitment to environmentally responsible seafood production.

Harnessing Advanced Technology for Enhanced Salmon Rearing

The facility incorporates cutting-edge recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS), which enable efficient water reuse and maintain optimal water conditions essential for healthy salmon development. By integrating renewable energy sources such as hydropower and solar power, the operation drastically lowers its carbon emissions compared to conventional fish farming methods.

• Innovative RAS Technology: Provides meticulous control over water parameters to ensure robust growth and disease prevention.
• Increased Production Output: Engineered to raise smolt production capacity by nearly one-third, supporting larger-scale downstream harvesting.
• Sustainability-Driven Design: Powered predominantly by clean energy solutions that minimize environmental footprint throughout the lifecycle of farmed salmon.
