Globic 8000 is a brand new hydrolysing self-polishing antifouling product that incorporates Hempel\u2019s nano acrylate technology which delivers a fine polishing control mechanism to bring the integral biocides to the surface at a stable rate ensuring a clean hull.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s particularly effective for slow-steaming operations because of its instant activation of polishing and biocide leaching.<\/p>\n
Dynamic 8000, also newly launched, extends the current range utilising silylated acrylate technology to deliver exceptional antifouling service at higher speeds.<\/p>\n
Completing the suite of new products is Basic which is Hempel\u2019s most economic antifouling suitable for up to a 36 month drydocking interval.<\/p>\n
All three new products also make use of Hempel\u2019s innovative micro-fibre reinforcement technology that enhances the mechanical strength of the coating to reduce cracking and peeling.<\/p>\n
Andreas Glud, Hempel\u2019s group product manager, said: \u201cThese two new products offer a wider choice for owners and yards and deliver exceptional value-for-money. This, together with a 3% fuel saving, means that these antifouling systems offer an unparalleled return on investment.\u201d<\/p>\n
