CRAB CRIB PROJECT BRIEF

One of the issues with traditional netted crab-pots is crabs getting caught and tangled inside the netting. When the crab is returned to water, it is common that they lose claws or limbs, compromising their survival chances within their natural ecosystem.

CRAB CRIB DESIGN

The Crab Crib was developed to overcome this problem and to deliver a more sustainable and more effective product to the market. Changing from netting to a flexible PVC die-cut sheet, the Crab Crib allows small crabs to easily slip out of the crab pot without causing any injury. The Crab Crib spreads up into a basket shape and collapses easily for effective storage and functionality.
