Jotun (Oslo, Norway), a global leader in marine coatings, recently announced the launch of its next generation of its recognized Hull Performance Solutions (HPS).
HPS 2.0 was presented to the shipping industry for the first time at Norway’s Nor-Shipping event, and it represents a significant enhancement to the HPS that was introduced in 2011, according to the company.
Included in HPS 2.0 are two new products for different trades and environments. These are delivered alongside the established and newly speed-loss verified SeaQuantum X200, which provides best-in-class technical service, hull condition management, and performance.
“We are thrilled to present HPS 2.0, a testament to our clean shipping commitment and our focus on innovation that has been ongoing since 1926,” says Morten Sten Johansen, global category director for hull performance. “This enhanced solution, consisting of products, services, data, and our credible performance guarantees, is designed to meet the evolving needs of our customers, ensuring optimal hull performance and supporting their ESG (environmental, social, and governance) ambitions.”
According to the company, HPS 2.0 will include four elements to optimize vessel efficiency. These elements are Jotun’s best antifouling technologies, which are tailored to trade; technical service from the industry’s largest team of coatings advisors; intelligent hull condition management; and credible performance guarantees.
