Artificially Aqua Culture

SRO+ offers a number of different environmentally friendly fabrics for use in aquaculture and the aquaculture industry.

Our technical textiles for the ocean industries are extremely durable and help to solve the major problem of microplastic pollution in the ocean and the natural environment. We collaborate closely with central players in the aquamarine industry to develop sound, sustainable solutions.

SRO+ technical textiles for ocean industries

  • 100% recyclable material, free from lead and microplastic.
  • Extremely durable: Long lifespan, minimal maintenance, low cost.
  • Reduces microplastic in the ocean.
  • At the end of their lifespan, our products can be recirculated via our recovery scheme reception scheme and subsequently reused/recycled.

Applications

Waste Management:

  • Geotextiles are utilized for storing and dewatering solid wastes in aquaculture systems. This helps in managing waste more efficiently and maintaining cleaner water conditions.

Disease Prevention:

  • Physical barriers made from geotextiles can separate different materials, species, or groups of fish. This separation is essential for preventing and controlling the spread of diseases within fish populations. By quarantining sick or diseased fish, handlers can treat them without risking the health of the entire stock.

Environmental Improvement:

  • Geotextiles help trap and remove pollutants, sediments, and debris from aquaculture environments. This not only reduces the risk of disease but also contributes to a healthier and more sustainable ecosystem for fish farming.

Habitat Enhancement:

  • Geotextiles can serve as substrates for probiotic bacteria, which play a vital role in controlling fish diseases through competition with pathogens and stimulation of the fish’s immune system. Additionally, these textiles can reduce aggressive interactions and stress among fish by providing structured environments, which is particularly beneficial in overcrowded conditions.

Aquaculture Infrastructure:

  • Geotextiles are used in the construction of pond liners, tank liners, and other support structures for aquaculture. These materials provide durable and stable foundations, essential for the longevity and efficiency of aquaculture systems.

Benefits

Enhanced Sustainability:

  • By improving waste management and disease control, geotextiles contribute to more sustainable aquaculture practices.

Healthier Fish:

  • Reduced disease prevalence and improved environmental conditions lead to healthier fish populations, which is beneficial for both farmers and consumers.

Economic Efficiency:

  • Better waste management and disease prevention can reduce operational costs and increase the profitability of aquaculture ventures.
