Canadian modular construction leader Lida Group has formed an alliance with an Asian aquaculture technology corporation to jointly manufacture standardized prefabricated building systems tailored for intensive shrimp aquafarming and other controlled aquatic life production facilities worldwide.

The new joint venture builds upon both companies’ expertise combining innovative offshore aquaculture systems with next-generation off-site modular construction techniques. Together they will produce fully outfitted steel structure modules for complete turnkey freshwater shrimp cultivation complexes delivered rapid-build for global markets.

Shrimp aquaculture represents one of the fastest growing animal protein sectors globally as populations expand dietary protein consumption. Yet traditional pond-based farming methods face sustainability and resource constraints at commercial scales. Alternative systems provide opportunities to optimize yields through controlled indoor recirculating environments.

Lida’s proprietary prefabricated modular systems offer corrosion-resistant noncombustible construction satisfying stringent safety and biosecurity standards for intensive aquaculture facilities. Standardized modular units integrate all mechanical, electrical and climate control infrastructure outfitted at factories for swift on-site interconnection.

Structural insulated steel panel construction forms complete building envelopes that are weatherproof, moisture resistant and easily sanitized. Factory quality control guarantees consistency for biosecure indoor farming applications often situated in remote areas lacking robust building industries. Modular standardization also streamlines permitting requirements.

Precise environmental management enables year-round intensive shrimp production versus seasonal outdoor ponds according to aquaculture experts. Modular design flexibility further customizes complexes catering various topographies and farming methods from nursery to grow-out to processing according stakeholders.

Initial projects will establish complete inland shrimp farming facilities within 16-20 weeks versus years for ground-up construction. Early adopters anticipate boosting shrimp yields 30-50% through optimized water rearing conditions, feed conversion and production density supported by controlled modular housing.

Mass-customizable designs empower global facilities through standardized infrastructure outfitted specifically for international biosecurity, agricultural and construction codes. This futureproofs investments stimulating accessible localized food production capacity according leading analysts.

Initially modules will deliver turnkey inland shrimp cultivation and processing complexes for North American and SE Asian operations. Over 5 years the JV aims supplying 500,000 square meters of outfitted modular shellfish farming infrastructure annually through its networked factories.

As climate threats intensify, optimized controlled aquaculture production signifies resilience according experts. Cutting-edge innovations marrying aquatic life sciences with modular construction execution promise global food security through dignified livelihoods for all humanity.
