About us

Mustad Autoline is a global leader in the development and supply of automated longline fishing equipment. Serving over 90% of the world’s demersal autoline fishing fleets, we have been at the forefront of innovation since our founding in the 1970s.

For more than five decades, we have continuously introduced cutting-edge solutions that help fishing fleets increase their catch of line-caught fish. Our product range is highly diverse, offering models tailored to various vessel sizes, from 33-foot coastal boats to 200-foot freezer longliners. These systems are capable of setting and hauling between 3,000 and 80,000 hooks per day, making our equipment adaptable to a wide range of fishing operations.

HAVFRONT – Efficient heading and gutting

Our newly upgraded HAVFRONT product range expands our offering with machines for heading and gutting fish, both onboard vessels and in land-based processing facilities. The compact LOPPA and the fully electric FOLLA 2.0 help processors reduce manual work, improve workflow and make better use of each fish.

FOLLA 2.0 combines digital automation with precise cutting, adapting to the size of each fish. With options for preserving roe and liver and for gutting fish with the head on, it offers flexibility to meet different processing needs. Together, our HAVFRONT machines bring Mustad Autoline’s commitment to innovation and quality into fish processing.
