Delivering Reliable Material Handling Systems for Huon Aquaculture Operations
Supporting plant expansion and feed processing infrastructure across multiple salmon production facilities.
Huon is one of Australia’s leading aquaculture producers, operating advanced salmon hatchery, nursery, and processing facilities across Tasmania.
Maintaining efficient feed handling and processing infrastructure is critical to supporting Huon’s large-scale aquaculture operations. Their facilities require reliable material conveying systems capable of operating within strict hygiene standards while integrating seamlessly into existing production environments.
The Client
The Problem
Huon required the delivery of multiple material handling and conveying projects across their aquaculture operations to support ongoing plant expansion and feed processing requirements.
Each system needed to integrate into live production environments while maintaining operational continuity. The equipment also had to meet strict hygiene standards typical of aquaculture and food-grade processing environments.
With several projects occurring across different sites, the systems needed to deliver reliable throughput while aligning with Huon’s long-term infrastructure planning.
The Solution
AFSystems worked with Huon’s maintenance and operations teams to scope and deliver conveying systems aligned with the operational requirements of each facility.
The focus was on selecting reliable equipment, ensuring compatibility with existing plant infrastructure, and coordinating delivery and installation in a way that supported ongoing production.
By working collaboratively with the Huon team, AFSystems ensured each project was delivered in line with operational expectations and site-specific requirements.
The Outcome
AFSystems supported the delivery of multiple projects through an approach that included:
- Conducting site reviews and confirming system layouts
- Selecting conveying and material handling equipment suited to each application
- Coordinating installation and commissioning within existing production facilities
- Ensuring systems integrated with current plant infrastructure and operational workflows
All works were planned to minimise disruption to live operations while maintaining high installation and hygiene standards.
Huon successfully commissioned multiple material handling systems across their aquaculture operations.
The installed systems deliver reliable throughput and integrate smoothly within existing plant infrastructure, supporting day-to-day feed processing activities.
These projects strengthened plant capability while providing scalable infrastructure to support Huon’s ongoing production growth across multiple sites.
