COPALIS – Storage and Transfer of Fish By-Products
Situation :
The company Copalis is part of a group specializing in fish production and processing. They focus on transforming all types of fish by-products (heads, fins, viscera, carcasses, etc.) into collagen oils, pharmaceutical solutions, and cosmetics.
Problematic :
To manage a highly bactericidal material in a bio-secure manner, ensuring its transfer and storage while integrating it into the existing process. All of this must be done while maintaining the added value of the product and its key factors to meet buyer requirements and uphold existing distribution contracts.
Solution Provided by the Company:
- Bio-secure Transfer System GIBAIR : Guarantees a transfer that eliminates cross-contamination and ground handling.
- Storage System for Pre-Process Materials: Custom 60 m³ tanks designed to prevent tipping, with automatic loading and unloading.
- Process Control Automation: Distributes the material between the three storage tanks and transfers it to various production points within the factory.
- Integration with Existing Client Control Software: A study for integration to incorporate the new system into the existing process while considering space constraints and equipment safety.
