Hull performance starts at newbuild
Your newbuilding is a long-term asset. By proactively starting hull management from day one, you set up your vessel for long-lasting, proven fuel efficiency, compliance confidence, and data-backed performance control.
Hempaguard starts at newbuild
Three routes to Hempaguard on your newbuilding

Pre-dock delivery
Extra docking at shipyard
After launching and outfitting, the vessel is brought back into dry dock at the shipyard for silicone application.

Post-dock delivery
Docking after shipyard
Application takes place after final delivery from the shipyard, at an external dry-dock facility.

Hull erection
During hull erection
Hempaguard NB silicone coating can be applied directly during the shipyard erection phase.
