AquacultureLice skirts

Our lice skirts are produced of high-quality materials to ensure a long lifespan and long-term protections against sea lice. The lice skirts are mounted in the upper water layer (depth of 5-10 meters) where larvae of sea lice are floating using a fat micelle. The lice skirt works as a barrier for the salmon lice and shuts them off from the salmon in the cage. In addition to protecting against sea lice, the skirt also shields against other undesired particles and organisms. The skirts are specially produced with the desired length and depth in line with the customer’s needs and our experts’ recommendations and can be mounted on both the outside and inside of the rings in the cage. We offer several types of materials of both standard and high quality, and always recommend choosing materials of high quality such that the lice skirts tolerate services and can have an increased lifespan. Our lice skirts are designed to the customer’s needs, the specifications of the fish farming cage, and the environment of the fish farm. The skirts are tailor-made to the customers needs and are only used high quality materials that suit the environment the fish farm is located in.

Ísfell delivers both sealed skirts that guide the flow of water around the cage as well as skirts that allow water to permeate through them.
