BV type approval for foul-release coating

Propspeed is an all-in-one defence against marine growth and corrosion for use on all underwater components.

Its biocide-free technology uses physical processes to create a surface that resists all types of marine organism.

“We take great pride in the quality, durability, safety and effectiveness of all of the Propspeed foul-release systems we provide the marine industry,” said Marcus Hamilton, chief executive, Propspeed.

“Type Approval is important for our customers as it is verification conducted by an independent third-party agency certifying that Propspeed complies with the rules and restrictions of the strictest shipbuilding best practices.

“Receiving recognition by the experts at Bureau Veritas is further proof that the marine industry can put their trust and confidence in Propspeed, and that the Propspeed foul-release system will exceed the expectations of all our current and future customers.”
