Serious BiofoulingSerious biofouling and organic matter blockage impede the water
exchange, resulting a low oxygen content environment for the fish.
And fishes are easy to get ill and infected under this condition. | Naturally Bacteriostatic - Healthy Fish HarvestCopper alloy mesh naturally inhibit biofouling, preventing the mesh
from organic matter clogging. This increases water flow and oxygen
content and reduce fish disease and infection. |
Not Recyclable & Short Replacing PeriodTraditional polymer fish net would finally end up in local
landfills because they are not recyclable. And the surrounding
water quality got worse after long time using traditional mesh. Lifespan of traditional fish net is very short especially when they
are used in waving offshore aquaculture environments. | Recyclable & Long Service TimeCopper alloy fish cage is corrosion resistant and can be used for
5–10 years. It loses little mass over time, and it is 100% recyclable. Retired
copper alloy material will be used in the initial product of copper
alloy mesh, which reduces CO2 emission. American Soybean
Association did a research that the copper alloy material won't
pollute surrounding water. |
High Maintenance CostDivers need to clean and remove the traditional polymer mesh now
and then, wasting too much labor, time and money. | Low Maintenance CostCopper alloy mesh would stay clean and don't need to be removed,
which reduce the diver cost and risk, as well as the maintenance
costs. |
Weak in Predator ResistanceTraditional fish net is easy to be damaged by the outside
predators, and fish can easily escape from the net. Farmers are
vexatious because they need to protect their fish, but they cannot
do harm to the predators. | High Strength to Defend PredatorsHigh-strength copper alloy mesh can efficiently resist predators
attack (like seals, sea lions and sharks) and fish escape. They
even act well when extreme storm come. |
