A new IQF Freezer for Scotia Harvest is on its way to Canada. Upon arrival in Digby, Nova Scotia, the Skaginn 3X IQF Tunnel Freezer will be installed at Scotia Harvest’s new 43,580-square-foot groundfish processing facility. Intended for haddock and redfish, the freezer will serve a plant that is set to process around 27,000 kilograms of fresh fish per shift. Equipped with state-of-the-art machinery, a new production line will allow the company to better control throughput, yield and quality throughout processing.
