Hempaguard MaX is the most efficient hull coating solution on the market today offering exceptional antifouling performance and full operational flexibility. Its innovative three-coat system makes it fast to apply, so you spend less time in drydock. And the synergy between each advanced layer creates low Average Hull Roughness (AHR) for less drag and more fuel efficiency at sea.
Optimizing your hull can bring incremental efficiencies that really add up. There is no better way of doing this than with the Hempaguard MaX.
Hempaguard MaX builds on the success of Hempaguard X7, the first hull coating to use Hempel’s innovative Actiguard® technology. Since 2013, Hempaguard has been successfully applied to more than 3000 vessels. This equals to CO2 reduction of 27 million tonnes, corresponding to 8.6 million tonnes of fuel saved as a result of a smoother hull.
Hempaguard MaX brings even better savings. Firstly in drydock, where its innovative three-coat system can save up to two days' application time. Then in service, with even better fuel savings thanks to increased smoothness from the synergy of Hempadur Quattro XO 17820, Nexus II and Hempaguard X8 with enhanced Actiguard® technology.
It’s so efficient, you could see ROI in just three months.*
*Based on VLCC with activity level of 70 per cent and low sulphur fuel costing 35 per cent more than bunker fuel over a five-year life cycle, Hempaguard MaX system delivers an annual saving of around USD 1.8 million compared to a market average antifouling equating to ROI of three months
Hempaguard MaX is an innovative three-coat system, combining Hempadur Quattro XO 17820, Nexus II tiecoat and Hempaguard X8 topcoat. Application time is reduced in drydock by up to two days. The synergy of the three coatings brings benefits at sea with low Average Hull Roughness (AHR) for less drag and improved out-of-dock fuel savings. The enhanced hydrogel in Actiguard® technology provides high smoothness in water and boosts antifouling performance.
SHAPE (Systems for Hull and Propeller Efficiency) documents Hempaguard MaX’s fuel savings in a programme of continuous improvement, making you more efficient, profitable and competitive in a challenging marine world. It helps you make informed choices, for instance about whether slow steaming is the right solution, based on verified and consistent sources of data.
