Aqua Production Systems has helped our many clients save hundreds of thousands of dollars each year with our holding tank systems that have zero mortality claims 365 days a year.

Having the ability to hold their catch longer without jeopardizing its health, quality, or well-being allows those in the fishing industry to sell when the market is better suited instead of right away.

They can also ship their product globally in confidence, knowing the quality will not change, and the risk of dying products is mitigated. Their technological equipment is effective and efficient for live lobster holding facilities, oyster holding facilities and fin fish hatcheries.

Customers of Aqua Production Systems also typically experience a 40-60% reduction in energy each year, qualifying them for multiple government grants which support the use of clean technology and energy efficiency.
