T-CLEAN
In development

T-CLEAN

Automated tuna peeling system combining computer vision and precision robotics. Generates a complete 3D surface map of each fish to minimise waste at full production speed.

SPS
In development

SPS

Industrial system for the automated peeling of frozen sharks, designed to optimise processing with a focus on efficiency, sustainability and regulatory compliance.

C-TUNA
In development

C-TUNA

Automatic on-board inspection system for tuna caught at sea. Uses advanced computer vision and a nestable neural network to detect and classify different tuna species directly on the vessel's fish deck.

In development

BIOACOUSTIC

Acoustic invisibility system to hide an underwater object from detection by sonar devices or by echolocating marine animals.

In development

Contaminant detection at sea

Portable electrochemical sensing for marine toxins and contaminants — point-of-catch, no lab required.

In development

Shark bycatch reduction

Autonomous system to reduce accidental shark capture in industrial tuna fisheries. Targeted deterrence without affecting the catch or vessel operations.

Technology platforms

Our best AI applied to Three Pillars of R&D

Acoustics

Generation, propagation, control and reception of underwater sound waves. Effective for long-range communication, fish guidance and deterrence.

Computer Vision

Light-based detection and processing systems for underwater and industrial applications. From inspection cameras to AI-powered in-line scanners.

Microwave technology

Solid State Microwave generation (0.9 to 3.0 GHz) used in our developments to produce heat energy by the rapid movement and rotation of polar molecules by rubbing against each other.

Company

Marine technology from Vigo, since 2004.

Deliver value through technological development and innovation projects for fishing, aquaculture and the environment.

Marexi was founded in Vigo by technologist Joaquín Gracia Salvador and scientist Iñaki Miniño. Today the team spans engineers, physicists, mathematicians and biologists.

The company operates from technical offices and R&D laboratories in Vigo and Palma de Mallorca, designing, manufacturing and commercialising its own products, with over 20 years of experience in the fishing, aquaculture and food processing industries.
