What makes us unique? Located right on the UK's Northumberland coastline, we pump a constant supply of near tropical temperature seawater to our outdoor production space and private wet laboratories, which are equipped to support a broad range of commercial and research activities.
Our purpose-built facility is the ideal location for both start-up and more established aquaculture businesses. We can provide the flexible, scalable space needed to enable your business to grow, as well as on-site business support and access to a technical advisory group who act as a valuable knowledge pool for our tenants.
So whatever your area of aquaculture expertise, Astec Aquaculture Business & Science Centre offers the perfect location in which to develop and prosper.
