At STAR FISH we put maximum interest to carry out effectively the necessary stages in the elaboration of our products.

For the preparation of fish and cephalopods, both fresh and frozen, our staff performs washing, sorting and weighing upon receipt of the raw material. The three phases are made for all products, except for cephalopods that will be prepared in block. In this case, they go to the classification and weighing without pre-wash.

With the whole fish destined to be frozen. We do a primary conditioning before sending it to the freezing tunnel. When preparing frozen fillets, we do the filleting. Later, the fillets are washed and are weighed, before the primary conditioning. Then, we put them inside the freezing tunnel at a temperature between -35°C and -40°C. When the product is frozen, we pack it in cardboard boxes, each box identified with its label. Later, the boxes are stored at temperature below - 18 ° C until they are shipped to customers.

The preparation of fresh fish is done with a conditioning with ice. We sell it whole or eviscerated. In the second case, before of the conditioning, the fishes are decapitated and gutted, after, each pieces is washing. It is made with the utmost care to ensure the quality of the product. Later, both whole fish and gutted fish, packs are labeled and stored in a cooler until the time of the expedition.

STAR FISH sold Octopus and other cephalopods with two presentations: in block and IQF. To prepare it in IQF we do a wash after receiving raw material, for block preparation is not necessary. The rest of the phases are common in the two products. At the end of the classification and weighing, we make the primary conditioning, then passed through the freezing tunnel. After spending time in the tunnel at temperature below - 38°C, frozen products are packed in cardboard boxes. We check that all boxes are identified with a label. Finally, they is stored in chambers at temperature below - 18°C, until be sent to customers.
