The projects objective is to develop a cost effective sea cage net suitable for farming of typical net aggressive fish species initially important for the European fish farming industry and in the near future i e European seabass. Gilthead seabream and Atlantic cod by identifying a cost-effective polyolefin material with the right characteristics to prevent disruption and chip ups due to the mishandling from the farmed fish. To achieve these objectives we will need to develop a net filament with improved physical characteristics and incorporated impregnation and repulsive agents that prevent fouling and biting and snatching behaviour. Na adaptation of existing net manufacturing technique for optimal exploitation of material characteristics will be developed and used to produce a net with a developed new net design that improves adaptation regarding species specificity net configuration strength and durability and low labour costs.
