Marine & Watercraft
Elevating Durability and Performance
Marine vessels of all kinds are susceptible to the effects of water, salt, impact, abrasion, chemicals, hazards, UV radiation and wear over time.
Enable every vessel to withstand common hazards.
Our optically clear, premium CrystalCoat® multi-purpose surface glazing treatments and weatherable coating system provide excellent resistance to abrasion, chemicals, impact damage and UV radiation plus hydrophilic water sheeting. And they will not haze or discolor with exposure to sunlight.
Our subsidiary, FSI Coating Technologies, also offers a wide range of complementary anti-fog coating and film solutions for marine applications.
Our subsidiary COTEC GmbH offers DURALON® hydrophobic coating system which reduces wettability, promoting anti-static and anti-fouling properties.
We provide solutions for every type of marine vessel.
