PRODUCT INFORMAT UNDERWATI HULLS Ablative No use of tributyl No extra waste disposal costs Effective foul in control for 3 yea Free to sail anywh SIGMAPLANE ECOL BENEFITS Tinfree control Sigmaplane Ecol is a Highly effective Ablative antifouling designed for use anywhere in the world. It is unaffected by any current local or future international legislation banning TBT. Fouling control The principle of fouling control is the same as the traditional selfpolishing antifoulings. But Sigmaplane Ecol is based on a new technology binder which releases antifouling agent slowly into the laminar layer around the hull, keeping it smooth and foul free, even in static conditions. The controlled selfpolishing action continuously exposes fresh protection layers and prevents fuel penalties from excessive coating build up. Service performance is presently recommended for up to 3 years although we have already seen encouraging results from longer periods. It is suitable for both new building and maintenance including block stage application; and can top up other antifoulings with no sealer coat requirements in most cases.
