MLD ADJUSTABLE/STEERABLE TECHNOLOGY

We believe in innovation as a path to create new opportunities for the fishing industry

MLD stands for Multi-Purpose Door and was established in 2015. Ever since then we have continued to grow. We are market pioneers when it comes to developing steerable trawling systems and have one of the most efficient trawl doors available on the market. We have created many possible configurations aimed to improve the profitability and ease of operation onboard trawlers.

OUR VISION

Our vision for the future aims to develop the next generation of integrated fishing equipment, bringing the trawl fishing industry closer to the dream of many fishermen: complete control of their trawl doors while fishing.

DEVELOPMENT​

We develop our trawl doors through a collaboration with skippers and experts from the subsea industry.

Our headquarters are located in Esbjerg, Denmark. where our doors are manufactured with the highest standard of quality. Our products have been tested in the North Atlantic since December 2016 proving all the value-added features of the MLD Trawl doors and Trawl Steering System.

WHAT WE DO​

We Create High-Value Functions For Your Trawl Operation.

MLD takes the dynamic designs of the aero-industry to the subsea environment utilizing our patented flap design. The combination of our flap design and hydraulic system makes a dynamic product that includes remote steering possibilities.

We take no shortcuts. We guarantee the quality of our products with our carefully controlled design, production and post-sale services.

“Throughout the design process we have focused on performance, reliability and quality. MLD trawl doors are designed for easy installation and service while hanging in the gallows. The control systems are designed for easy and intuitive operation where simple base commands are transferred to the trawl door computer which executes accordingly.”
