Controlling the growth of organisms and maintaining a smooth, clean hull minimizes drag and helps to deliver on the intended operational performance of vessels. Biofouling is proven to slow down a vessel by as much as 40%. Without effective antifouling coatings, the industry would potentially have to spend an extra $35 billion* per year on fuel and the environment would have to absorb another 400 million tons of CO2 emissions.
