KAILIS BROS operates two live lobster holding tank facilities with a combined total holding capacity of 25,000 kilos.

The Fremantle based facility is an “open holding system”. The larger Canning Vale based facility is a “closed” recirculating system using state of the art technology, with enhanced bio-filtration and temperature control. This system enables lobsters to be held for longer periods of time, ensuring continuity of supply virtually 12 months of the year.

KAILIS BROS Clipper K brand live lobsters are selected and packed to exacting specifications with mortality at worldwide destinations consistently below 1%. Packaging is in 9kg net weight polystyrene boxes with "pine shavings" used as a packaging protectant and gel packs added for temperature stability.

Shipment of 60 x 9kg per AVE (LD3) air containers are most common.
