EGERSUND TRADING AS improves aquaculture working conditions with WINTERSTEIGER drying solutions
In aquaculture, employees work outdoors in wet, demanding environments year-round. These conditions make it challenging to maintain comfort, safety, and hygiene, especially when workwear and equipment remain damp. Recognizing this challenge, EGERSUND TRADING AS (part of AKVA Group) has chosen to integrate WINTERSTEIGER Dry & Protect drying systems into the solutions they deliver to their customers.
AKVA Group is a leading global provider of solutions and services for the aquaculture industry, offering everything from individual components to complete production systems. With over 50 years of experience, the company helps customers operate in the harshest marine environments while improving fish performance, sustainability, and profitability.
By incorporating our drying solutions into feeding barges and operational facilities, EGERSUND TRADING AS ensures that fish farm workers enjoy a more hygienic and comfortable work environment. Damp workwear is not only dried but can also be preheated before stepping back into rough sea weather. Equipped with Sterex plasma technology, our systems remove unpleasant odors while drying gear – creating a safer, cleaner, and more pleasant workspace.
“Our customers work in very harsh conditions. Ensuring workwear is comfortable and functional helps to make these conditions more bearable. Hygiene and a safe work environment are of the utmost importance for them, and the drying cabinets and panels from WINTERSTEIGER promote such environments.” – Monika Rabben, General Manager, EGERSUND TRADING AS (part of AKVA Group)
