Through the new collaboration, Redox will offer Anolytech’s technology as part of its system deliveries to the fish farming and fisheries industries. In addition, Redox will offer Anolytech’s products on a standalone basis.

“This strategic cooperation agreement underlines our continuous efforts to offer the fishery and aquaculture industries the best possible solutions for improved biosecurity and fish welfare, with smallest possible environmental footprint and increased profitability for the customer,” Redox Managing Director Jonas Bergman said.

Averøy, Norway-headquartered Redox develops environmentally-friendly system solutions that improve fish welfare and biosecurity for the aquaculture industry. The company has developed a complete water purification and hygiene system for wellboats and stun-and-bleed vessels. It also has a strong position within land-based aquaculture, both within oxygen production and ozone. 

The ozone systems are used as disinfectant for several parts of the value chain, for example the water intake at land-based aquaculture facilities. 

Swedish company Anolytech has developed a technical solution that enables production of its AnoDes disinfectant at the site it will be used. AnoDes kills bacteria, viruses, mould, fungi and spores through an environmentally friendly disinfection of water and surfaces. 

Anolytech’s objective is to replace harmful chemicals with a sustainable alternative. The company’s current main market is Europe and customers in ocean-based industries, agriculture, the food industry, hotels and property, public sector and healthcare. Anolytech’s head office is located in Ystad, Sweden. It has offices in five other European countries.

“Redox’s strong position within the aquaculture and fishery industries makes them the right cooperation partner for us. Both companies see great potential in developing new solutions that improve water quality and reduce chemical discharges. The interest in sustainable technology solutions is increasing and we expect to be part of driving this change together with Redox,” Anolytech Managing Director Sandra Lindström said. 

Redox’s is owned by seafood investor Bluefront Equity, an independent Nordic investor focusing solely on the seafood industry.
