We meet up with Dr. Reed Phillips, inventor of BARNACIDE® who shares his full story about the biofouling issues, current solutions and how their new solution is set to solve the problem - the first completely eco-friendly coating polymer coating.
BARNACIDE® is the first environmentally safe, sufficiently effective means to prevent biofouling to a satisfactory degree. Our patented technology provides an outer layer to repel and prevent biofouling, and an inner layer to eliminate any organism that can penetrate the outer layer.
BARNACIDE® is active against all forms of biofouling, and protects nearly any structure for a minimum of 5 years. The two layers of polymers, each with different biologically active chemical agents, together produce a technology that is extremely effective in eliminating cosmetic, biological, chemical, corrosive, and mechanical damage to the submerged surfaces mentioned above.
We believe in preserving our planet. That's why BARNACIDE® is made with biologically active chemical materials that are non-toxic to the environment, especially the aquatic environment. We also work hard to minimize our carbon footprint in all aspects of our production processes and business operations. Additionally, the effectiveness of BARNACIDE® reduces the need for reapplication and can lower a vessel's fuel consumption due to the reduced drag underwater.
