Sea water resistant coatings for ships and offshore

Extensive product range for maritime individuality

Due to their versatility and outstanding physical properties, our ceramic-polymer coating products set standards within the whole maritime sector. We provide solvent-free protection systems, tested in accordance with ISO 20340. The relevant corrosivity categories for the offshore industry (DIN EN ISO 12944-2 – classes C5-M and IM1-3) as well as the NORSOK Standard M-501, Edition 6 - System 1 and 7B are also completely satisfied by our high-performance portfolio.

Rotor frames, rotor blades and towers of offshore wind generators have to withstand extreme weather conditions. The constantly moist and salt-laden air combined with intensive UV radiation is highly corrosive. Tremendous wind speeds and rainstorms with an impact of hammer strokes induce heavy wear and abrasion effects.

Within the intertidal zone and splash zone, the oxygen content of the sea water is increased due to currents and waves. Hence, the corrosion process is enormously accelerated by constantly moving water. In addition, severe mechanical abrasion results from flowing water. For this field of application we provide ideal protection.

For new buildings and renewals of ship bodies, high impact resistance is required. The sheer rails on the sides are exposed to heavy loads during landing processes. Rudder blades show oftentimes deep cavitation erosions. Deck coatings have to be weather-proof, skid-proof and usually chemical resistant. The Ceramic Polymer coating products fulfill these requirements and provide long-lasting impact and abrasion resistance.

Furthermore, our coatings are excellently applicable as internal coatings for different kinds of tanks on the ships. Our portfolio contains ideal protective systems for waste water tanks and freshwater tanks as well as pool water tanks. Thus we make a considerable contribution to effective value preservation within the whole range of maritime techniques.
