The fisheries are in constant development, and we work closely with shipowners and fishermen in order to develop the designs and functions of our trawl models. We deliver pelagic and semi-pelagic trawls, shrimp trawls and bottom trawls. Our experienced engineering team design our trawls in accordance with your requirements.
Pelagic and semi-pelagic trawl
We have many years of experience with the production of pelagic and semi-pelagic trawls, for both Norwegian as well as international waters. Our pelagic trawls are produced in varying sizes and materials, which are adapted to your requirements. We make diamond mesh trawls (four-sided meshes) and hexagonal trawls (six-sided meshes) in different sizes and materials for fishing of blue whiting, horse mackerel, anchovies, herring, mackerel and more.
We also offer other equipment for pelagic trawl such as trawl wire rope, swipes and hardware. The Danline rope that is used in our pelagic trawls are produced in our own rope factory in Måløy. We control the entire value chain here, from granulate to completed rope, and hence ensure the high quality of the rope and the trawls we deliver. Our rope is dense, has incredible wearing strength and is easy to work with, plus all rope from our rope factory is produced with only renewable energy.
Bottom trawl
In recent decades, our GR trawls have been among the most-used trawls in Norwegian waters. Through a high degree of continued development in designs and materials in close co-operation with our customers, the bottom trawl models GR-400, GR-444 and GR-520 have given good results. We also deliver trawl strands, trawl wire rope, trawl doors, swipes, rockhopper equipment, sorting nets and hardware.
Streamline Net
In our Danish seines we recommend the Streamline net, which is one of the best net alternatives on the market with respect to both quality and strength. Streamline gives less towing resistance with its good wearing strength and thinner strands, that make it possible to adjust the net’s dimensions. This in turn makes for less resistance in the sea, allowing you to have a larger Danish seine net that fishes more effectively. The current Streamline trawl is produced in many different sizes; Streamline 470, 536 and 630 stand tall among our successful trawls. Also Streamline 810 provides more height for better catch.
In combination with our hydrodynamic floats, the water glides through in an optimum way, allowing the net to be towed more easily through the sea.
Hydrodynamic trawl floats
With the special hydrodynamic shape, the design contributes to the trawl floats going through the water in a more stable way. At the same time, the hydrodynamic floats can reduce fuel consumption and withstand stronger pressures than standard floats. They are available in sizes of 8”, 9.5”, 11” and 14”, and also come as oval floats.
Rockhopper
Our Rockhopper Gear is produced in accordance with your requirements and specifications, and we will make sure that the gear is suitable for your trawl.
Trawl Doors
Thyborøn Trawldoor is among the world’s leading manufacturers of trawl doors for all conditions: bottom, semi-pelagic and pelagic fisheries. With the aid of good trawldoors you attain far better spreading of the trawl.
Thyborøn trawldoor are developed and produced at Thyborøn, one of Denmark’s largest fisheries harbours. Product development takes place in close co-operation with fishermen and leading experts, with testing in test tanks across the entire world. We thus can offer a complete line of trawl doors in all shapes for all fisheries around the globe.
Fishing Wire rope
Selstad is a distributor of trawl wire and purse seine wire from the Portuguese company Oliveira SA, and delivers fishing wire with a design and material quality developed for use in tough environments. We also offer a broad spectrum of steel rope for different purposes and application areas, and have many different varieties in stock.
We have steel ropes for all types of cranes: mobile cranes, offshore cranes, winches, lifts, mooring, straps, stays, ski lifts and forestry. With our extensive experience in lifting, we can be of assistance with finding the proper steel rope design for you.
Wire spooling with tension
New trawl wire deserves good spooling from day one. This reduces the danger of damage and wear to the wire and increases its lifespan.
With our tension winch on the quay in Måløy, we can provide tension under controlled and safe conditions, at the same time as other service is performed on vessels and equipment.
Benefits of wire spooling with tension:
- Precise spooling immediately
- Better spooling – extended lifespan
- Splicing of wire
- Socket casting
- Talurit pressing
- 4-18 tons tension
- Controlled and safe conditions
Sustainability
In order to ensure a sustainable footprint, we accept old wire, purse seines and trawls for recycling.
