Matís' long-term partner recently signed an agreement with HB Grandi, which lays the foundation for an arrangement on board icefish trawlers for the future.
3X Technology has now concluded an agreement with HB Grandi on the design, construction and implementation of a complete solution for processing decks on board Helga María AK, but as is well known, Helga María has completed her last fishing trip as a freezer trawler and will be released as an icefish trawler after changes. The solution is based on research, measurements and product development that has been carried out in collaboration between Icelandic fisheries companies, Matís and 3X Technology in recent years.
Jóhann Jónasson, the company's managing director, says that the collaboration with Matís has been crucial: “Our collaboration and the firm conviction of the staff of Matís and 3X Technology that the future and main opportunity of the Icelandic fishing industry lies in building on quality production is to deliver this, because companies like HB Grandi is of the same opinion and they look to the future with the aim of delivering excellent and consistent quality to their customers. "
An agreement like this matters
"HB Grandi is without a doubt one of the most powerful companies in the country and therefore this agreement is a great recognition for our excellent cooperation. It is more than a year since this project with HB Grandi began and this phase is very dear to us and many employees from these three companies have put their hand to the plow and created this result ".
Jóhann thanks Matís for the collaboration and says he looks forward to continuing the collaboration, as it has given the company both wings. "The processing deck on board Helga María is one of the most advanced that we at 3X have come across in an icefish trawler and will lay a strong foundation for future arrangements on board such vessels".
Product differences
"Earlier this winter, we sold 3X Technology to an Icelandic salted fish manufacturer, Fiskkaup, ROTEX equipment on board the liner and net vessel Kristrún RE-177, but Fiskkaup sells salted fish to Italy, among other places. Their Italian customers were satisfied with the products before but are now very happy, they say that the fish now has a brighter tone than before. It all supports each other, although we did not easily see a difference in the fish when it was taken home, it is whiter when it comes on the market, it is as it turned out when the fish, the raw material, was measured at Matís and their results measurements indicated that there was a difference between fish that were treated in the traditional way and fish that went through our ROTEX ship solutions ".
Matís sincerely congratulates 3X Technology on the course!
