The Norwegian technology company Normex has been granted a patent for Razone – a technology developed to ensure stable and controlled water quality in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS).
The patent confirms the novelty of the technology and marks an important step in Normex’s continued focus on land-based aquaculture.
Razone is designed for continuous commercial operation in modern RAS facilities and provides farmers with improved control of water quality. The solution reduces biological risk, particularly during intensive phases of juvenile fish production, where even minor fluctuations in water quality can have significant consequences.
“Stable water quality is essential for fish health and production in RAS facilities. Razone has been developed to give farmers better control, more predictable operations and improved fish welfare,” says Stig Ove Johansen, CEO of Normex.
The patent strengthens Normex’s position as a technology provider for land-based aquaculture, both in Norway and internationally, and provides increased confidence for customers and partners regarding the solution’s reliability and scalability.
“This is an important milestone for us and confirms the relevance of Razone in modern RAS facilities. With the patent in place, we have a clearer foundation for further development and implementation in commercial RAS environments,” Johansen adds.
