Tracing is crucial

As Vikenco both harvest and refine seafood from other companies, it is crucial to control the origin of the fish.

“Our fish can be traced all the way back through the production process to the seed, which ensures that our products maintain the highest standards for proof of purity”, says Husøy

Control and oversight

The production and refining process demands control and oversight; temperature, functions, machines and numbers

“The DGS IoT solution makes Vikenco able to control these processes through monitoring, visualizing and alarm systems”.

Salmon is an expensive product and to constantly control the output is crucial. A malfunction in the process can be costly and should immediately be alerted for correction. Maritech is now in the midst of developing real time surveillance and reporting of the production output, a development of great interest to Husøy and Vikenco.

“We are really looking forward to seeing the results of this work. This tool will help us monitor our output in detail, and possibly save even more time and money”.
