Polyurea coatings are perfect for use with steel hulls, as well as countless other structural and surface materials. Container vessels are typically made from steel frames, which can be particularly susceptible to corrosion and fouling. Just as polyurea is an effective protective coating for steel hulls, it provides the same benefits to many different ship designs and constructions.
Polyurea is an overall better solution for protecting container vessels than anti-fouling paints. Not only does polyurea serve to create an anti-fouling surface, but it also insulates hulls from corrosive seawater, and protects them from other forms of weathering and abrasion. Polyurea offers more functionality, with better performance and longevity.
