Marine - Newbuilding, maintenance & Repair

Our Marine coatings brings unrivaled levels of experience and expertise in coatings technology to answer the ever-changing needs of major asset owners, ship builders and maintenance yards, consulting engineers and the construction industry.

Correct coating choice and application at the new-building stage is the easiest way of ensuring that the coatings applied will provide maximum corrosion protection, thus improving the vessel's efficiency and helping to reduce on-board maintenance costs.

The building of a new vessel involves a large investment for the owner and is a labour intensive process for the shipyard. Coatings form a relatively small part of the total vessel cost, yet they are a key factor in subsequent asset protection, safe operation and maximising revenues when the vessel is in service. Maintenance with coatings prevents the steel from returning to its original oxidised state during the course of the vessels life. It slows the rate of the decline in value and well-planned maintenance with specialty designed coatings can provide a substantial increase in service life. Therefore good coating maintenance practice is really asset protection.

Sigma Coatings Marine coatings offers a unique range for new-building and maintenance designed to cope with the most demanding service conditions whilst at the same time being designed to allow efficient application in shipyards. These coating systems provide both productivity benefits for the shipyard and superior performance for the owner.

Our marine coatings products are available worldwide, providing coatings for the protection of ocean going and coastal vessels.
