SIGMAPLANE ECOL HA

When you need fouling protection under extreme conditions, choose

Sigmaplane Ecol HA. TBT-free, it's the underwater hull coating that will allow you to sail to any port.

Sigma Coatings' proven new technology has produced a new type of binder that releases antifouling biocides slowly into the laminate layer around the hull, keeping it smooth and fouling free—even in certain static conditions. And service life is longer—up to and exceeding 3 years, depending on operation rates of the vessel.

Choose Sigmaplane Ecol HA for new building or maintenance. It's the antifouling that's a top performer below the water.
