Explore the aquaculture market
Salt water equipment
Many fish farms use water fed directly from the sea. Therefore customers need products made from materials that can cope in corrosive environments. Our PVC and PE pipe, fittings, valves, pumps and filters are designed to withstand corrosion caused by sea water.
Pipework
We are one of Europe’s largest distributors of metric and imperial PE and PVC pipe, fittings and valves which are ideally suited to all forms of aquaculture. We also offer drainage pipework, flexible hoses and all other means to install your filtration pipework.
Filtration
Bosta UK offers all kinds of commercial pumps and filters to suit the aquaculture market, including sand and vortex filters to remove debris from your water supply.
