Encapsulating Technology for the Aquaculture Industry

Encapsulating Technology for the Aquaculture Industry

The Norwegian company Etm4u has extensive experience in enclosure solutions and electronic protection. This year, they are exhibiting at Aqua Nor for the very first time, showcasing how tailor-made technical enclosures and cabinets can bring significant benefits to the aquaculture industry.

— Aquaculture is a relatively new sector for us, but we have worked with challenging industries such as defense and aviation for many years. We now see that we have a great deal to offer fish farms and the aquaculture industry in general, says Håvar Menken, Sales Engineer at Etm4u.

Enclosures built to withstand the open sea

The company’s specialty for the aquaculture sector is plastic enclosures that protect electronics from moisture, saltwater, and harsh weather.

— For example, we supply cabinets for control systems used with cameras, feeding systems, and sensors that measure oxygen levels and sea lice counts. Such systems need solid protection – and that’s where we come in, Håvar explains.

In addition to enclosures and cabinets, Etm4u offers a wide range of related equipment and services, including:

Tailored to every project

Etm4u is a technical partner delivering customized and fully assembled enclosure solutions for your project.

They work mainly on a project basis and are often on site with customers to carry out assessments and develop solutions together.

— We don’t just take a standard box and ship it to the customer. We adapt, drill, label, and prepare the cabinets for installation – and we often work closely with the customer’s engineers and development teams, both digitally and in person, to ensure the solution is a perfect fit, Håvar says.

— We only stock European brands and offer both standard products and options for customization. This gives our customers flexibility and a shorter route from idea to finished product – something that is becoming increasingly important in a fast-moving industry like aquaculture.

One of the best meeting places

Etm4u is looking forward to being an exhibitor at Aqua Nor for the first time.

— Aqua Nor is the perfect arena for us. Here, we get to meet both existing and potential customers, valuable partners, and even competitors – and we get the chance to show what we can offer the aquaculture industry, Håvar says, adding:

— We get great value from attending niche trade exhibitions like this. Since so much of our work today takes place digitally, it’s even more important and valuable to meet face-to-face at events like Aqua Nor.

At their stand, they will be showcasing plastic cabinets from suppliers Fibox and Bopla, and explain more about how they work with customized and practical solutions.
