Antifouling products
For close to 100 years, Jotun has provided products to keep ship hulls clean from biofouling. Our ambition is to provide our customers with the best possible products to assure efficient and reliable operations.
Protect biodiversity
The spread of invasive aquatic species to new environments by ships has been recognised as a major threat to the planet’s freshwater, coastal and marine ecosystems.
Today, a documented clean hull is a ticket to port in some areas. The IMO has published Guidelines for the control and management of ships' biofouling to minimise the transfer of invasive aquatic species.
While there is no single industry standard addressing this at present, NGO Bellona Foundation and Jotun are leading the Clean Hull Initiative (CHI) – an industry consortium whose aim is to develop standardized ways for proactive hull cleaning to tackle biofouling.

Committed to protecting biodiversity
Avoiding the transfer of invasive aquatic species is made possible by maintaining an clean hull. The timely removal of biofouling at its geographical origin reduces the risk of spreading invasive species in the new waters. Proactive biofouling management is a solution to protect biodiversity.
Hull Skating Solutions
Jotun Hull Skating Solutions (HSS) utilises proactive cleaning to combat early-stage fouling and maintain an always-clean hull, even in the most challenging operations. A clean hull significantly reduces fuel costs, greenhouse gas emissions and the spread of invasive species.
HullKeeper
Controlling the condition of your ship hull is the key to avoiding increased fuel consumption and GHG emissions, which are a threat to both business and the environment. With Jotun HullKeeper, you get a range of services for optimised hull performance. You will be able to identify potential problems long before they slow you down, allowing you to make better decisions, faster.
Hull Performance Solutions
Jotun Hull Performance Solutions (HPS) makes it easy for operators to maximise hull performance and thereby reduce both fuel costs and greenhouse gas emissions. The solution consists of advanced antifouling products, combined with a transparent method for measuring the impact of antifouling on vessel energy efficiency.

Jotun Solutions
In Jotun, we design high performing antifouling solutions to helping to protect our oceans and water courses in a diverse range of aquatic environments across global shipping routes. Jotun Hull Skating Solutions (HSS) removes fouling at a microfouling stage before it becomes a biosecurity risk.
Jotun HullKeeper’s monitoring and prediction service identifies hull fouling at the earliest possible stage. If confirmed by the subsequent inspections, then cleaning the hull as soon as convenient will ultimately contribute to the conservation of biodiversity.
A clean hull ensures clean operations. Clean operations protect biodiversity. At Jotun, we believe our products and services play an important role in maintaining a clean hull and protecting biodiversity.
