SWISS LACHS - pure alpine fish

Zurich, Zurich, Switzerland • 15 Employees
Food Production

Swiss Alpine Fish AG is growing salmon in Lostallo, a beautiful unspoilt corner in the Italian part of Graubünden. The recirculating aquaculture system technology is the most advanced and elaborated type of aquaculture. Our water is filtered sevenfold, we recycle all our waste in a local biogas plant. The fish is growing in fresh water entirely free from chemicals and antibiotics. The result is a fresh, healthy fish which is not only fresher, healthier and more sustainable, it also tastes better.Our circulation system is closed, there is no fish escape, no chemicals or antibiotics which damage other sea life. The technology of the closed water cycle is particularly ressource-friendly and reduces the need for fresh water to below 2%.As Switzerland's only salmon farm no one can beat the freshness and quality of hand smoking our own premium fish grown onsite in Lostallo, Graubünden. We have built a traditional smokehouse which allows us to start the smoking as soon as our fish is out of the water. Our highly skilled craftsmen with decades of experience will start off by filleting the fish and then placing the fillets in a brine bath consisting of salt, pepper and a variety of alpine herbs.
