World leading paint manufacturer, AkzoNobel partners up with Fjord Tech Solutions, marking the beginning of "The Clean Hull Project" .
At the end of the 2021-season, tests were performed on fouled panels, coated with eco-friendly foul release coating, to determine the ideal cleaning parameters.
High pressure nozzles are mounted on the automated robotic cleaning arm, ensuring a thoroughly clean hull in no time.
30 forward leaning boat owners joins the test boat program, converting their boats from traditional self-polishing antifouling to eco friendly foul release coating from International paint.
9 out of 10 boat owners experienced increased top speed when switching to foul release coatings. The fouling build up varied from boat to boat, but the common factor was that the fouling came off easily with the help of a cloth or hand movement. Promising results provides fertile ground for optimism for further development of a brushless hull cleaning system.
The in-water cleaning system will be installed at Vollen Marina during the spring of 2023, and test boat owners can expect cleaning tests to begin in May/June.
