HDPE FLOATING STRUCTURES

Floating Structures for Aquaculture

Pacific Netting Products designs and manufactures HDPE Floating Structures for Aquaculture. We have a long history of supporting commercial fisheries as well as partnering with federal, state, and tribal agencies. We serve both recreational and protected fisheries. Furthermore, we take on the responsibility of protecting the health and welfare of fish and other aquatic species with our structures.

Customized Net Structures

Our floating HDPE net pens are customized for many different fish species and age classes. We configure aquaculture pens in any size and geometry. Behavior-based elements are incorporated into each design to help facilitate optimum fish growth and health. Additionally, we always consider the environmental forces the floating structures will be subject to when deployed.

Portable and Adaptable Aquaculture Structures

PNP’s designs allow for portability and ease of transport. Alternatively, where a net pen cannot be removed, we offer a design that can be sunk deep within the water column (e.g., below ice and waves) and re-floated after spring thaw.

Our Commitment to Native Fishery Restoration

PNP is committed to improving fish stocks and participating in the restoration of native fisheries. We achieve success by providing the highest quality materials, fabrication and design through the products we offer.
