“We are proud of the growth we have experienced in recent years and the continued expansion we foresee in the coming months in the production of fish processing equipment. Our order book is strong for 2025, and we are working full force on exciting projects for 2026,” says Magnús Blöndal, Division Manager of DNG Processing Equipment at Slippurinn Akureyri ehf.
“We have always been strong in processing equipment for vessels, but in recent years, we have also made significant strides in providing solutions for land-based processing, with great success,” Magnús adds.
“Increased focus and investment in development have yielded great results. We have extensive knowledge and experience in raw material handling and are working on diverse and challenging projects for our customers.”
The scale of projects varies. In some cases, they involve large and complex processing systems that require extensive planning and preparation. However, Magnús notes that the company is also approached with projects that need to be solved for customers in a short timeframe. This diversity makes the work highly varied. Among the systems that DNG Processing Equipment has developed in recent years, Magnús highlights automated hold systems, bleeding systems for fishing vessels, and raw material sorting solutions, not to mention the Promas production system—a software solution for DNG processing systems, both on land and at sea.
Magnús notes that revenue from DNG Processing Equipment’s international projects is growing, covering solutions for both land-based and marine applications.
“In many cases, we manufacture the equipment here in Iceland and then travel abroad for installation and commissioning,” says Magnús.
He also emphasizes the strong competition in this sector.
“Yes, competition is fierce—both domestically and internationally, as we compete with foreign companies in this field. Competition is a good thing; it’s not just about price but also about solutions, expertise, and service. With the experience and knowledge we have built, we are in a very strong competitive position,” says Magnús Blöndal.
