Aqualine Midgard System® is the result of several years of research with one goal in mind – TO PREVENT ESCAPES.


The Midgard system has proven that even during extreme weather- conditions – at very exposed locations – the interaction between fi sh net, sinker tube and cage flotation collar functions optimally.


The majority of fi sh farmers along the harsh Norwegian coastline have now invested in a signifi cant number of Midgard fi sh nets for their farms; several of these nets now deployed in the sea.
