'Biobased and biodegradable trammel fishing nets'

The project aimed at developing biobased and biodegradable trammel nets and testing them over three fishing seasons in three different ports in the north of France. SeaBird developed a formulation for the production of the monofilaments used to manufacture the nets. This project led to the production of the first prototype of multi-monofilament trammel fishing net in Europe. Fishermen evaluated fishing efficiency and the net integrity during use compared to conventional nets. The mechanical properties of the nets reached 82% of the reference nylon net and no significant differences in fishing efficiency were observed.
