At East Coast Innovation we design, build, and deliver ingenious technologies that the industry needs to scale. Through precision engineering, real-world validation, and strategic partnerships, we work with producers to drive responsible, global growth.

Our capabilities are impressive. We offer a one-stop approach to solving aquaculture challenges, handling the entire process – design, validation, manufacturing, installation, and ongoing support.

Our flagship product, the SmoothMove, was designed specifically to address a critical challenge faced by fish farmers world-wide: fish loading. Every detail, from water flow to design, helps guide fish naturally into the system. The result: faster loading, more consistent transfer rates, lower crowding and happier fish.

The SmoothMove is the world’s first and only purpose-built fish loading device, developed to improve the critical interface between the fish population and the pumping system – and, in doing so, to improve fish health and welfare during loading. It conditions the zone in front of the suction hose, creating a more inviting environment so that fish remain within the loading zone rather than actively swim away from it. The result is more efficient transfers at lower densities, with fish remaining calm from beginning to end.

Fish farmers, vessel owners, or anyone interested in improving fish welfare should stop by the booth to learn more about how SmoothMove can benefit your operations.

With a strong focus on innovation, Aquaculture UK provides the perfect platform for launching SmoothMove to the UK market and beyond. Following years of research & development, prototyping, and commercial validation, we’re excited to showcase this game-changing technology to the wider market – and to demonstrate the efficiency and welfare benefits it can bring to farming operations. We’re also looking forward to seeing other new products and networking with potential customers, fellow innovators, and industry professionals alike.
