Stella Polaris 3.0 Process no / eng Our experience, expertise and enthusiasm make us the obvious choice for a supplier. Traceability all the way from catch to you Immediately after the prawns have been caught and hauled on board the fishing vessel, they are frozen. This retains the prawns’ naturally high quality. Most of our raw materials are landed directly at our production plant in Kårvikhamn. Here the prawns are thawed before they are cooked and cleaned for shells and heads. After peeling, the prawns are frozen with a protective layer of water (glazing) to prevent drying out and freezer burns. The prawns are packed in bags directly to the consumer. The bags are labelled in such a way that we can trace the individual pack right back to the fishing vessel that caught the prawns, as well as the time of production at Stella Polaris. In other words, we have complete traceability on all finished goods. Probably the world’s most automated prawn factory Previous Next With the high salary costs in Norway, we have had to focus on effective production. All our production now takes place under one roof. Stella Polaris is probably the most automated production plant for prawns in the world today. Our prawns are untouched by human hands, from when the frozen raw materials are placed in the freezer until they are packaged. Automation and standardisation also ensure a consistent quality. Our employees are our most important resource Our most important guarantee for ensuring excellent production and top quality of our products, is our employees. We therefore strive to create all-year jobs and high job satisfaction. This has contributed towards a high level of experience and expertise among our workforce, in production, sales and logistics.
