In today's world, sustainability is more than just a buzzword. Consumers are becoming increasingly conscious of the impact their actions have on the environment, and this is reflected in their purchasing decisions. As such, companies that prioritize sustainability have a competitive advantage in the marketplace. This is particularly true in the marine manufacturing industry, where BARNACIDE® anti-fouling coatings offer a sustainable solution that can help manufacturers win more business.
Biofouling is a persistent problem in the marine industry, and until recently, there was no environmentally safe and effective means of preventing it. However, with BARNACIDE®, marine manufacturers can now offer their customers a sustainable and effective solution that can prolong the lifetime of marine and freshwater exposed surfaces. BARNACIDE® has four products that protect boat hulls and bottom paints, engines, running gear, coolant systems, cooling power plant intake pipes, piers, pilings, docks, bulkheads (metal & wood), concrete structures, canal locks and gates, recreational lake beaches, shores, bottoms, undersea transmission cables, oil rigs, and buoys.
The BARNACIDE® anti-fouling coatings are a two-layered polymer coating with different eco-friendly biologically active chemical agents in each of the two layers. The outer layer prevents damage by repelling and preventing immature forms of biofouling organisms from attaching to the surface, while the inner layer prevents any organism that penetrates the outer layer from growing and damaging the surface. The two layers act synergistically to prevent cosmetic, chemical, biological, and mechanical damage to the surface.
By using BARNACIDE® anti-fouling coatings, marine manufacturers can improve their environmental credentials and appeal to environmentally conscious consumers. In addition, BARNACIDE® coatings have a minimum operational life of five years, which means that customers will need to have their boats serviced less frequently, leading to cost savings and increased customer satisfaction.
Furthermore, BARNACIDE® coatings are active against all forms of freshwater and saltwater biofouling, including barnacles, mussels, algae, shipworms, and more. They are also the only known preventative treatment for Sea Grapes, which can cause significant damage to submerged surfaces. This means that manufacturers can offer their customers a comprehensive solution to biofouling, further increasing their competitive advantage.
Organizations in the marine industry can gain a notable competitive advantage by prioritizing sustainability and using eco-friendly anti-fouling coatings such as BARNACIDE®. By doing so, they can appeal to environmentally conscious consumers, reduce costs, and offer a comprehensive solution to the persistent problem of biofouling. The benefits of using BARNACIDE® anti-fouling coatings extend beyond sustainability and customer satisfaction, as they can also lead to increased business success and growth in the marine manufacturing industry.
