Altre informazioni:
the company operates from Reculver, eight miles East of Whitstable where the hatchery and several nursery systems are situated. An extensive pond system covering 8 hectares allows the luxury of good water quality management resulting in year round mollusc seed production . Species produced of oyster and clam seed are (Crassostrea gigas, Ostrea edulis, Mercenaria mercenaria, Tapes decussata, Tapes semidecussata). and other species of bivalve mollusc to order. Our beach operation is based at Seasalter where over recent times production has shifted towards the half grown seed market within the Oyster farming industry. The Pollard Ground production site area is vast (some 12 km2) and there is a huge tidal flow through the Thames estuary passing constantly over the flats. A completely different aspect of the business is concerned with the sale of technological advances developed by John Bayes and his team over the past three decades. Our "SeaCAP Systems" (Continuous harvest microalgal systems) and customised hatchery designs have been installed at both fish and shellfish farms in 16 countries. Our training programmes, consultancy and after-sales back up service is most unique because it is supported by an exclusive hands-on operation.
