The Environmentally Friendly Biofouling Protectant

ABOUT BARNACIDE®

The biofouling of ships and other submerged structures is one of the last unsolved problems in Marine Science and Engineering. Before the development of BARNACIDE®, there had been no environmentally safe, sufficiently effective means to prevent biofouling to a satisfactory degree. When our founder, Dr. Phillips discovered this issue while developing an ocean wave electricity generator, he set out to find a solution.

After researching the issue, Dr. Phillips developed BARNACIDE®, a sustainable solution to prolong the lifetime of your marine and freshwater exposed surfaces
