NutriAd
Global consumption of seafood and fish is increasing world-wide. This increasing consumption
cannot be met by fisheries which are stagnating since decades. Aquaculture is filling the gap and
today already 50% of the fish and shellfish consumed worldwide is farmed. Global aquafeed volume
reached 29 million mt in 2010 and is expected to grow to 70 million mt in 2020. Aquaculture is
a young industry and many aspects are still under development, including feed formulation and
disease prevention strategies. Therefore, the aquafeed market offers great opportunities for the
development of novel feed additives to improve feed efficiency and health prevention. This is exactly where Nutriad sees its potential !
Nutriad has further increased its focus on aquaculture by setting up a specific Business Unit with a clear mission to make Nutriad a global leader
in specialty additives for aquafeed. The Aquafeed industry is highly specialized and Nutriad’s Business Unit Aquaculture counts with dedicated
teams for product innovation, product registration, production, and customer service. Customers are supported by experienced aqua experts
located in the main aquaculture regions.
Nutriad’s Business Unit Aquaculture emerged in 2009 from joining know-how and expertise from two core business units of the INVE group:
INVE Aquaculture and Nutriad. The current product portfolio is
focused on specialty additives developed through years of research
under lab trials and field verification under production conditions in
the field. Key products include species specific digestibility enhancers
to reduce feed cost and improve performance (AQUAGEST®),

3. Wenger
Always Changing To Meet Customer Needs Back in 1935, when Wenger was established as a local
manufacturer of mixers and feed milling machinery, the company’s main objective was to add value and
palatability to low-quality feed. Today, as the world’s leading supplier of aquatic and pet food processing
systems, Wenger is helping customers meet a new, more-timely list of objectives, like increasing production
rates, lowering energy costs and expanding viable recipe options. In 2010 alone, Wenger introduced 23
new innovations and was issued 11 new patents in response to rapidly changing needs in the industry.
Innovative designs - Available in both single screw and twin screw configurations, Wenger extruders boast
capacities as high as 22 tonne/hour. Two new innovations - Wenger diverging cone screws and oblique
die technologies - make extrusion the superior choice for production of even high capacity micro aquatic
feeds.
Knowledge, research, training and support - Wenger customers have access to the 2,500-square-meter
Wenger Technical Center for testing ideas and formulas. Wenger technical support also includes pre-
and post-installation engineering assistance, operator training and on-site attention to quality control and
operational needs. Extensive inventories of replacement parts are maintained for prompt shipment to
customers. Service after the sale is standard with Wenger products.

and administrative facilities are located at the company’s Sabetha, Kansas, USA

Aqua Nor 2013
Over the past 40 years, the Norwegian aquaculture industry has developed into one of the
most modern and advanced in the world. Norwegian production of farmed fish has grown from
just 100 tonnes in 1970 to over 1.1 million tonnes in 2011.
Science and technology have been important contributors to this success, and at Aqua Nor,
modern aquaculture technology is presented to the world.
The exhibition, which is held every other year, alternating with the Nor-Fishing exhibition, is
organized by the non-profit Nor-Fishing Foundation.
It was the desire to exhibit aquaculture technology that was one of the main forces behind
establishing the Aqua Nor exhibition over 30 years ago. In 1979, a conference on aquaculture
was held in Trondheim, Norway, and some of the equipment suppliers were given permission
to show their products outside the conference hall. This became very popular, and it was soon
AQUA NOR 2013 decided to organize an aquaculture exhibition every other year in Trondheim, alternating with
the Nor-Fishing exhibition.
Since then, Aqua Nor has developed into the largest aquaculture exhibition in the world,
attracting some 450 exhibitors and 15,000 – 20,000 visitors from about 60 countries.
INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION During four days in August, the exhibition halls are busy with visitors from all over, and the
visitors have a chance to get up-dated on all the latest technology and knowledge in modern
13-16 AUGUST fish farming.
TRONDHEIM, NORWAY Aqua Nor is more than just an exhibition. Numerous seminars, presentations and mini-
conferences are held during the exhibition, and technical as well as commercial topics are
discussed. Just a few days before the exhibition itself, the European Aquaculture Society (EAS)
will hold their annual conference, Aquaculture Europe in Trondheim, from the 9th until the
12th of August.In addition, Aqua Nor offers a unique opportunity to enlarge your network in
the aquaculture industry.
