Seafood

We design complete processing facilities for salmon, whitefish, pelagic and shellfish - from live fish reception through production to cold storage and dispatch.

Every layout starts with the production line. Equipment positions, product flow and hygiene barriers are resolved before the building envelope is drawn. This process-first approach means the facility is designed around what it needs to do, not fitted into a predetermined shape.

What we deliver

Full architectural services from feasibility study through construction documentation. Process hall layouts, cold chain design, hygienic zoning, staff and logistics separation, technical infrastructure, quay access and site planning. We work directly with process equipment suppliers to ensure the building serves the line - not the other way around.

Why it matters

A seafood processing facility is a long-term capital investment where operational efficiency is determined at the drawing stage. Incorrect flow, undersized corridors or inflexible structural grids become permanent constraints. Our facilities are designed with oversized utility corridors, expansion-ready structural grids and pre-planned future zones - so capacity growth does not require demolition.

Documented experience

Over six decades of industrial facility design, including multiple large-scale salmon and whitefish processing plants across Norway and internationally. Recent projects range from greenfield facilities producing 30,000+ tonnes annually to targeted expansions of existing plants maintaining full production throughout construction.
