07 / PARTNER DEALER JAPAN · NITTO DENKO · JAPAN TO WORLD
Biocide-Free Hull Coatings
Toxin-free physical antifouling

An eco-conscious hull coating developed by Nitto Denko that is free of biocides. Without the copper compounds and other bio-toxic substances conventional antifouling paints rely on, it suppresses biological adhesion using only the physical properties of the coating — a next-generation antifouling solution.

It prevents barnacle and algae adhesion on hulls while reducing the load on marine ecosystems — combining fuel efficiency with environmental responsibility. It is one of the flagship products in COAST's cross-trading initiative to bring high-quality Japanese technology to global markets.

Physical Antifouling

Suppresses biological adhesion through the physical properties of the coating surface. A next-generation approach that imposes no chemical load.

03

Fuel Efficiency

By reducing fouling-related hull drag, contributes to better fuel efficiency and lower operating costs.
