Why fish factories choose ClearFox®
Modular, containerized, and scalable
Our systems arrive pre-assembled, factory-tested and ready to connect — inlet, outlet and power. They fit inside your production hall or anywhere on your premises with minimal space, and they scale as your output grows, so no investment is ever wasted. They can also be easily relocated if you ever move premises.
Low CAPEX and OPEX
No extensive civil works or permanent buildings. Biological treatment by natural processes means minimal chemical and running costs, and low-maintenance operation.
Guaranteed compliance
We give a process guarantee that your system will meet the required discharge values.

The technology we supply
Every ClearFox fish processing system is assembled from proven, in-house process modules — so you get the exact treatment chain your effluent needs, and nothing you don’t:
- Screw Screen — removes bones, scales and coarse solids before they clog your system.
- Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) — the workhorse of fish processing pre-treatment; our optimised flotation reactor removes fats, oils, blood and suspended solids in a compact footprint.
- Fixed Bed Biofilm Reactor (FBBR) — a natural, chemical-free biological process with very low operating costs, ideal for the high organic load in fish processing effluent.
- Lamella Clarifier — compact, high-efficiency separation of settleable solids after the biological stage.
- Containerized Systems — the whole treatment chain, pre-installed and factory-tested inside an ISO shipping container.
