ABOUT THE CLIENT
SEAFOOD FACILITY IN AUSTRALIA
Sydney Fish Market operates as the heart of Sydney’s seafood trade. As part of the Sydney Fish Market Redevelopment project, a new live seafood facility was constructed to provide wet storage for a wide range of live species, including rock lobster, abalone, coral trout, spanner crabs, blue swimmer crabs, and pipis.
The redevelopment represents a significant modernization of the market’s live seafood handling capabilities.
WHAT THE CLIENT NEEDED
RELIABLE BIOSECURITY FOR LIVE SEAFOOD
A live crustacean holding system of this scale, supporting multiple species with distinct water quality and temperature requirements, required a dependable disinfection barrier to protect animal welfare across long holding periods. With three replicate recirculating seawater systems in operation, each needed consistent, chemical-free microbial control to prevent disease spread and maintain water quality for the crustaceans held within.
Given the corrosive nature of seawater and the operational demands of a high-throughput commercial market, the disinfection technology needed to be durable, low-maintenance, and fully compatible with saltwater conditions.
THE SOLUTION
CORROSION-RESISTANT UV DISINFECTION
In collaboration with Fresh By Design, who delivered the design and construction of the live crustacean system, ULTRAAQUA supplied UV systems from the Non-Corrosive PP Series to support water disinfection across the recirculating seawater systems.
Manufactured from Polypropylene (PP), the units are built to withstand the demands of continuous saltwater exposure, offering excellent resistance to corrosion, temperature, and pressure. Fitted with UV sensors, the systems provide ongoing monitoring of disinfection performance, helping maintain the water quality standards required to protect live crustaceans across the three recirculating systems.
The corrosion-resistant construction and low-maintenance design of the Non-Corrosive PP Series make it well suited to the continuous operational demands of a commercial live seafood facility, supporting the long-term reliability and animal welfare outcomes central to the project.
Systems installed: 3x MR3-220PP
