JOTUN, one of the world’s leading producers and suppliers of paints, coatings and powder coatings, is showcasing its high quality marine products and services at the three-day ongoing Seatrade Middle East Maritime exhibition that began at the Dubai World Trade Centre on December 4, 2006. JOTUN’s stand at Number 1510 displays the company’s SeaForce Antifouling solutions, SeaQuantum, SeaForce and SeaLion Fouling Release Coating (FRC) products for the regional maritime industry at the show, which is the Middle East’s foremost exhibition for marine products and services.
JOTUN’s SeaQuantum is a self-polishing and self-smoothing antifouling agent that offers a drydocking interval of up to 60 months through a predictable fouling protection performance. For a cost-effective solution, JOTUN’s SeaForce self-polishing antifouling product offers a drydocking interval of up to 36 months, which can be upgraded to a further 60 months when combined with SeaQuantum.
JOTUN is also promoting its SeaLion Fouling Release Coating (FRC) product at the exhibition, which offers longtime economical benefits through its robust system and excellent fouling release control properties.
“As the largest specialized show for the region's maritime sector, the Seatrade exhibition provides us a most effective platform through which to further our strategic business objectives,” said Bjorn Tveitan of JOTUN Paints. “The exhibition has attracted industry leaders from all over the world, presenting us the right opportunity to scout for new alliances, while at the same time, projecting and showcasing our wide range of products and services to a high-profile audience.”
