Industrial fishing
Fish consumption is increasing worldwide and the increase in consumer requirements keeps pace with this development.
More demands on quantity and quality determine the face of present-day sea fishing. The fish processing business revolves mostly around keeping the quick-cool and quick-freeze times to a minimum.
This begins on board the ships directly after the fish are caught. Advanced, robust and reliable systems are required to achieve such goals.
GEA Marine Refrigeration Solutions designs and delivers tailor made refrigeration systems that satisfy the high standards of efficiency and ease of use.
We serve the following types of vessels in the fishing industry:
- Trawlers (pelagic and bottom)
- Crab catchers
- Tuna seiners
- Long liners
- Shrimp trawlers
Refrigeration systems
The consumption quality of fish is determined by the way in which the catch is handled in the first hours on board the fishing vessel.
The optimum quality of freshly caught fish can only be preserved through quick, controlled, and hygienic refrigeration and freezing of the fish. This calls for powerful, reliable refrigeration systems.
Whatever your requirement, GEA Marine supplies complete solutions in various subsystems:
- RSW systems – refrigerated sea water
- Chilled process seawater systems
- Freezing
- With plate freezers
- In tunnels
- Immersion in brine
- NH3/CO2 freezing systems

GEA Insights
The breakthrough that changed spray drying
In 1976, NIRO engineers responded to a competitive challenge by rethinking what spray drying could do. Their idea became the multi-stage dryer MSD. Fifty years later, the same fundamental principle helps turn liquids into the powders used in essential nutrition products and important medicines around the world. Refined through decades of engineering expertise, customer insight and continuous development, MSD is a story of innovation with lasting impact.
Beyond the machine: unlocking better plant performance
An efficient machine does not automatically make an efficient factory. Real improvement often starts by looking beyond individual equipment and understanding how processes, energy systems and operating decisions affect one another. It’s a holistic approach designed to uncover opportunities that might otherwise be missed.
How a valve reshapes the way food and drinks are made
In food and beverage plants, valves are commonly operated using compressed air. GEA Hydract® Actuation Technology moves valves with water instead, in a closed, digitally controlled circuit. The result is a valve that can be held exactly in place and steered in fine-tuned steps. This results in lower energy use and greater control.
