The Selektope-containing coastal vessel antifouling coatings range was expanded by Chugoku Marine Paints.
Selektope, the antifouling technology developed by Swedish biotechnology company I-Tech AB, will be a major component in leading hull coating manufacturer Chugoku Marine Paints’ (CMP) new domestic marine coating range, I-Tech announced.
CMP integrated Selektope into two new antifouling paint products designed for coastal vessels to meet the growing hard fouling prevention needs for vessels sailing and docking in biofouling hotspots off the coast of Japan, I-Tech said. Chugoku’s expansion increases the availability of Selektope-based products to a wider range of coastal ships in Japan most susceptible to biofouling, I-Tech said.
Chugoku announced a review of its complete offering within the Sea Premier range earlier this year, including its new products Sea Premier 3000 PLUS 1 and 2000 PLUS.
These include new chemistry and add to existing offerings containing Selektope, such as the Sea Premier 200 Plus, 1000Plus, 1000Plus H and 3000 Plus 2.
Sea Premier 3000 PLUS 2 and PLUS 1 are the continuations of the award-winning antifouling coating SEA PREMIER 3000 PLUS, I-Tech said.
These products are silyl resin self-polishing coating types with the combined power of Selektope and cuprous oxide for superior hard fouling prevention, according to I-Tech.
Sea Premier 3000 PLUS 2is suitable for low-speed, low-activity vessels whereas Sea Premier 3000 PLUS 1 is suitable for medium and low-speed, low-activity vessels, according to Chugoku Marine Paints.
Sea Premier 2000 PLUS is a silyl resin self-polishing antifouling coating containing Selektope combined with cuprous oxide that is suitable for general coastal vessels, according to Chugoku Marine Paints.
