COPPERCOAT ANTI-FOUL
Coppercoat provides an approved, environmentally responsible and uniquely long-lasting solution to the problem of marine fouling.
Epoxy based, Coppercoat is classified as non-eroding, causing less harm to the environment than conventional ablative antifoul paints. Fully approved by the HSE in compliance with UK and EU Law, Coppercoat also complies with all relevant International Maritime Organisation (IMO) resolutions.
• VOC-free (Volatile Organic Compounds)
• Water-based Epoxy
Recycled Copper
• Tin-free
Utilising 2kg’s of ultra fine, 99% pure copper in 1 litre of resign the two pack system contains the highest allowable volume of copper under international regulations. As the hull or structure are submerged in sea water the exposed pure copper forms cuprous oxide, with the surface degrading the result is the creation of cupric hydrochloride which falls away under the motion of the vessel removing any marine growth while revelling a fresh copper surface and continuing the proccess of hull and marine infrastructure.
Coppercoat can be applied to;
Recreational power and sail vessels SuperYachts Commercial Vessels Marine Infrastructure

Indication of Potential Savings:
2008 Coppercoat-Superyacht is applied to a 37m Sunseeker at a cost of €28,000 instead of conventional coatings at €16,000
2010 Without the requirement to lift the vessel and reapply antifoul approximatly €17,000 has been saved in the first 2 years with the owner breaking even on costs.
2016 An estimated €120,000 has been saved on the reapplication of antifoul and associated costs.
2028 With the continued performance of the Coppercoat treatment it is forecasted that the owner will save somewhere in vicinity €350,000 (giving allowance for inflation and labour costs to reapply conventional antifoul paint)
