Hardingsmolt is expanding its facility with a 13,800 m³ tank volume for brackish water operations. After this expansion, they will have a total production capacity of 4.2 million postsmolt weighing 1000 grams each.
Frode Sandven, General Manager of Hardingsmolt, states, “We have very good experiences as a customer of Nofitech, and in recent years we have fine-tuned our production to deliver high-quality seawater-adapted smolt with systems built by Nofitech. They deliver a standardized and efficient concept while being receptive to improvements. Although we have had the opportunity to produce large smolt for several years, this construction phase is crucial for scaling up our production.”

Construction will begin in late autumn 2024, and the module is planned to be operational by summer 2026.
Robert Hundstad, CEO of Nofitech, is pleased that they are now signing yet another contract with Hardingsmolt. “We are proud of the trust Hardingsmolt shows us as a partner by choosing us and our cost-effective and compact ModulRAS concept for the third time, as they now increase their land-based production of postsmolt. We look forward to a new and exciting project, which will further contribute to strengthening our already very good and long-term cooperation.”
