We have supported the shipping industry with pioneering antifouling technology since the introduction of the first self polishing copolymer (SPC) antifouling in 1974. Since then, our renowned range of antifoulings has continued to evolve, meeting the needs of our customers in an ever changing environment. Maintaining a smooth, clean hull by controlling the growth of organisms and minimising drag is important in sustaining the operational efficiency of a vessel. Antifouling coatings inhibit fouling growth by releasing an active ingredient which prevents organisms from settling. These...

Product range Our antifouling range features a number of technology types, each designed to meet our customers’ operational and performance expectations. The range includes a patented linear polishing polymer (LPP), high performance copper acrylate and silyl acrylate self polishing copolymers (SPCs), controlled depletion polymers (CDPs), and standard performing self polishing copolymers – a combination of SPC and CDP technologies. Through our product stewardship policy, this range has continuously evolved to increase the volume solids of our products, providing through life cost savings and...

A century of experience Since the introduction of our first antifouling paint in 1881, we have continued to invest heavily in research and development to offer customers a choice of products to suit their individual operational, commercial and environmental requirements. We take our environmental responsibilities seriously and were the first coatings company to voluntarily withdraw TBT (tributyltin) based antifoulings from our range, ahead of the IMO’s 2003 global ban. Our range continues to evolve with our environmental obligations at the forefront of our new product development. Proven...
