Springs Traditional Smoked Seafoods - The market leader

Springs is a market leader in Australia producing high quality seafood.
The efficient distribution systems allow us to deliver daily, fresh and smoked seafood of the highest quality throughout Australia and overseas.
Springs has taken the standard of freshness, quality, packaging, labelling and hygiene to new levels in the Australian seafood industry. The standards set on the length of chilled "used by" dates are high and oppose the practice of defrosted product being dated as freshly packed seafood.

The purpose built smokehouse and processing facility at Mt Barker in the Adelaide Hills is export registered and complies with strict AQIS (Australian Quarantine and Inspection Service) standards, Reg Est 1717 FPA Status. An A rating has been maintained with full HACCP food safety controls and rigorous daily cleaning procedures. AQIS officers carry out regular detailed inspections of the premises and records. A full program of product, contact surface and factory environment testing by an independent laboratory ensures continued monitoring to satisfy AQIS and independent HACCP auditors of acceptable international microbiological levels.

The Atlantic Salmon species has ling been recognised as the 'king' of the salmon world. The texture, colour and oil content combine to produce the ideal fish for smoking. Today Australia rivals Europe by providing a cleaner, pristine, unpolluted environment to grow Atlantic salmon. Innovative aquaculture techniques maintain control of Southern Australia's disease free waters for the expanding seafood industry. The fish grown in sea cages are fed a specifically prepared diet to maximise growth rates and produce a premium quality.

During 2000-2001, Springs will produce 1000 tons of Atlantic salmon for the Domestic and Export markets. Approximately two tonnes of smoked and fresh seafood products are airfreighted around Australia each day, and export sales continue to grow.
