Tubular, disc-shaped and hat-like collectors designed for the selective settlement of mollusc seed (oysters, mussels, scallops, clams, etc.). Built in inert, robust materials treated with UV protection, resistant to corrosion and repeated handling. High specific surface with a rough texture, optimizing settlement rates in the natural environment. Seeds may be manually or automatically removed. Collectors are designed to be suspended from floating or submerged rafts, long-lines systems, poles or stacked in piles in suitable areas.
