Our emissions-reducing automated hull cleaning device proactively prevents the formation of marine growth and fouling organisms.

• High fuel consumption caused by biofouling can be cut between dry dock intervals
• Prohibits the exchange of invasive aquatic species at sea due to proactive cleaning
• The continuous soft-touch cleaning operation causes no damage to the hull surface
• Optimal vessel type is an over 100 m long shoebox hull tanker/bulker

Customer experience

• Simplicity / easy to use
• Long-term cost-effective operation
• Confidence in superior hull condition and appearance

Application area

• Cleans 90% of the ship’s hull sustainably
• The remainder is handled effectively with traditional cleaning methods
• Newbuild and retrofits
