Marketex Marine, a subsidiary within the BLRT Grupp family, is constructing a unique floating exhibition centre commissioned by Fluctus in Norway. The currently under construction centre has been called Salmon Eye. The exhibition centre will be 26 m long and wide and 15 m high. The entire construction is a combination of a pontoon and an unconventional elliptical upper structure shaped to resemble a fish eye. On the outside, the structure is to be covered with 9 500 high-grade stainless steel ‘scales’ that will imitate the appearance and the colour of a salmon skin with its unique reflection. The works are running as scheduled, and the steel structure has been sent for paint coatingSalmon Eye will be placed in the spectacular Hardangerfjord visited by thousands of tourists every year. This new tourist attraction will only be accessible by water. Salmon Eye will introduce visitors to the important topic of food production in the sea and be an important arena for inspiration about the potential under the surface.
