As fishing industry has been developing, vessels have increased their power, adapting to specific needs and types of fishing, growing in importance and complexity.
ARMON has built vessels of up to 180 meters in length, fishing boats being one among them. These are highly equipped crafts, on which storage and preservation spaces make use of stainless steel, crucial as material in contact with food and resistant to corrosion.
Stainless steel is a chemically inert, stable material and its constituent metals do not react with or transfer to food in a significant way, as other materials do. The lack of porosity of its surface allows cleaning, disinfecting and sterilizing without any risk of corrosion. Installations using non appropriate materials cause modifications in food and the transfer of undesirable substances. Food is in contact with different materials along its production line (elaboration, packaging, preservation, distribution and consuming), and those materials must be inert enough to avoid any transfer which could endanger human health or facilitate any change into the composition of the food or even an alteration on the organoleptic characteristics of it.
