Key Bene? ts of EverClean: • Enhanced Performance: Regular proactive cleaning leads to a 15% reduction in fuel consumption and emissions, trans- lating to signi? cant savings and environmental bene? ts. This reduction is achieved by maintaining a clean hull, which mini- mizes drag and maximizes fuel ef? ciency.

• Safe for Coatings: Proven safe for various hull coatings, including silicone-based ones, ensuring no damage while maintaining effectiveness. This aspect is crucial as it ex- tends the life of the coatings, reducing the frequency and cost of reapplications.

• Ef? cient Operations: The EverClean robots’ small size and autonomy reduce deployment costs and operational disrup- tions, making it feasible to clean hulls frequently without damaging the coating. This ef? ciency is crucial for main- taining regular cleaning schedules without interrupting ves- sel operations.

• Expanding Coverage: Growing presence in both US and in- era in hull maintenance. Greensea IQ is now scaling our ser- ternational ports and resident on ship options, with new loca- vice to provide the maritime industry with innovative tools tions added monthly to meet global demand.
