Subsea Magazine 284 is out now!
In this latest issue, we look at how long-term protection can change the way shipowners approach maintenance, while also introducing an important new certification that opens up new possibilities for Ecospeed in the aquaculture and food-contact sectors.
=>Article 1 – Ecoshield: Long-term protection where ships need it most
Rudders, thruster tunnels, Azipods, energy-saving devices, scrubber outlets and other critical areas operate in some of the harshest conditions on a vessel. Ecoshield was developed specifically to protect these components against corrosion, erosion and cavitation where conventional coatings can struggle.
The article explores applications across different vessel types and shows how Ecoshield can change the maintenance cycle from repeated repair and repainting to long-term prevention.
=> Article 2 – Ecospeed coatings certified food-contact safe
We are also pleased to share an important development for Ecospeed. Independent testing has confirmed compliance with FDA 21 CFR 175.300 for coatings used on surfaces that contact food. This creates new opportunities for applications including salmon well boats, aquaculture tanks, fish processing equipment and other marine food-contact environments.
