Aquaculture

As pioneers in the development of technology and systems for intensive mariculture under the Westwaters trademark, Westeam distributes innovative products within the Italian territory on behalf of manufacturers of international significance in this sector.

West Waters is a division of Westeam s.r.l, founded on the objective to diversify the company's activity, benefitting from the sound experience of certain associates in the aquaculture sector as suppliers of high value-added goods and services.

The working group that manages the West Waters division has developed significant expertise in the sector in which it operates and is made up of a team of highly professional persons.   

Belonging to a common generation and mutual respect and trust, have contributed to the creation of a harmonious climate in which ideas materialize and projects become reality.  

Affirmation of aquaculture as a high-growth production industry has drawn an ever-growing attention to the technical problems associated with production of aquatic organisms and, in particular, to the development of a technical and commercial structure dedicated exclusively to the sector.   

 West Waters brings together high profile technical skills drawing on the collaboration of professional figures capable of covering the spectrum of technology and marketing.

The available know-how is the assurance to our customers of quality in carrying out the tasks entrusted to us.  

The business area includes market research, feasibility studies, industrial planning and engineering for implementing reproduction facilities, rearing and processing of the catch.  

The collaboration established among the major companies in the sector place West Waters at the center of significant entrepreneurial experience and create a direct line to the complex and dynamic world of aquaculture.

The experience of the West Waters working group has grown through the direct participation of the partners in carrying out important projects implemented in Italy and abroad.  

Since the early 90s a number of high technical content initiatives have been completed, including the planning and start-up of offshore mariculture installations, as well as the development of strategic technologies relating to reproduction problems of valuable fish species.  

In aquaculture, attention to nutrition problems makes a considerable difference in the economic results.  The choice of specific feeding protocols consequently assumes a high level of importance.  Therefore, the use of products that can ensure more balanced and effective nutrition represents a tangible reduction in costs for the user.  

 In harmony with this vision, in 2002 West Waters concluded an agreement with the Dutch group Coppens International for exclusive distribution in the national territory of feeds for the various fresh and salt water species - a range of important and complementary products for the aquaculture industry production.
