The Hexcyl Pro Range maximises stock density and improves water flow. With five basket sizes, Pro baskets ensure stronger growth and long-term durability.
Hexcyl combines smart basket design, flexible line attachment, and optimised water flow to improve growth rates, reduce handling time, and increase long-term farm productivity.
Seed is placed into the appropriate basket size, then secured using the positive clip-lock system to keep stock safely contained.
Baskets attach along one line or across two lines approximately 600 mm to 750 mm apart, using the patented pivot bank for flexible positioning.
The hexagonal design and larger flat footprint promote even stock distribution and improved water circulation for consistent growth and conditioning.
Quick assembly, secure upright locking, and fold-down clips make grading, flipping, transport, and storage simple and efficient.
Our baskets and clips will outperform other plastic baskets because we use a specially developed Ultra High Impact Resistant materials known for sub zero temperature performance. All materials have the highest possible Ultra Violet resistance. We have had product in the field for over 10 years.

Hexcyl Pro helps farmers with efficiency and durability. Its larger footprint and reinforced structure ensure better water flow, higher capacity, and consistent performance, reducing breakage and handling time while boosting productivity.
Up to 40% greater capacity than standard baskets, allowing increased stock density without compromising flow.
Built to handle up to 10kg loads and rough conditions without warping or failure.
Flat-sided hexagonal design improves circulation for better growth and conditioning.
Tough, marine-grade materials reduce breakage and long-term costs.
Developed by oyster farmers and tested across real farms, not labs.
Our baskets and clips will outperform other plastic baskets because we use a specially developed Ultra High Impact Resistant materials known for sub zero temperature performance. All materials have the highest possible Ultra Violet resistance. We have had product in the field for over 10 years.
Every Hexcyl basket is built around practical farm experience and precision engineering to deliver strength, efficiency, and long-term reliability in demanding marine environments.
Attachment positions let baskets run along one line or across two, offering flexibility for various farm setups.
The shape creates a stable footprint that improves water flow and productivity.
Secure locking in both closed and upright operating positions reduces stock loss and improves safety during handling.
Impact-resistant, UV-stabilised construction ensures durability in cold climates and high-energy waters, extending service life over 10 years.
The Adjustable Longline System used for shellfish farming has been adopted on many continents receiving world wide recognition for its efficiencies in both production and shellfish quality. The concept was originally developed by Ritchie Baker, Tony Schutz and Geoff Turner of BST Oyster Supplies to farm Pacific oysters in South Australia’s high energy inter-tidal zones. The Adjustable Long Line System offers shellfish farmers the unique ability to raise and lower the growing height of stock on the farm for better management of shell growth, hygiene and meat condition in preparation for sale.
A typical installation will consist of:
Hexcyl Systems recommend using the extremely user friendly Vexcyl braided line. This line meets all occupational health and safety standards required for setting up and use of the lines. Vexcyl braided line is custom designed specifically for longline construction. Farmers appreciate the ease of handling and the fact that you only require the line to be tensioned 3% of the total line length to achieve the correct amount of line tension.
Hexcyl baskets are designed for a wide range of grow out options and orientations in low, moderate and high energy environments.
Our baskets suit shellfish ranging from a minimum overall length of 5 mm (13/64″) to 150 mm (6″) or greater.
