Celebrating an exceptional Aqua Nor 2025

This year’s exhibition in Trondheim was no exception with more than 25,000 visitors from 76 nations. As always it was a fantastic opportunity to catch up with customers, partners, and industry peers from across the globe. It was also the first year we attended under the new JBT Marel name, presenting our expanded knowledge base and portfolio to the industry.

Visitors to the stand had a chance to explore our advanced filleting and slicing solutions and speak to industry experts from our Norwegian JBT Marel team about how the latest equipment and software can address industry challenges. We were excited to see a strong interest in the new EVi gutting machine, which is raising the bar by creating even more value in salmon processing lines.

“Aqua Nor 2025 has been an incredible opportunity to connect with salmon customers here in Norway as well as international visitors from across the globe. I am truly grateful for the warm reception and the inspiring conversations we’ve had throughout the week. The strong interest in our new EVi gutting machine, alongside our proven leadership in salmon filleting, shows that we are driving real value for the industry. It was also fantastic to showcase the breadth of what we can offer under the new JBT Marel brand, together with our trusted partners. The energy and professionalism at Aqua Nor highlight just how exciting the future of aquaculture is,” Jón Birgir Gunnarsson, Senior Sales Director, JBT Marel.

On the stand visitors could dive into our new immersive room experience, an exciting new way to explore our hardware and software solutions. It was a stand-out feature of the event, creating opportunities for engaging discussions about how advanced technology can support processors today and in the future.

“We truly appreciate our customers visiting our booth this year, as they have in years past, to nurture long-standing relationships and explore the latest innovations. The immersive room – the first of its kind at Aqua Nor – created a highly engaging atmosphere at our booth,” Hans Marius, Industry Sales Manager, JBT Marel.
