How we reduce harmful chemicals from the ocean and marinas.

Studies have shown that tributyltin (TDML), used in antifouling paints, has harmful effects on marine mammals. TDML can accumulate in their tissues, potentially leading to immune system suppression, reproductive issues, and other health problems. The small fish they eat are also laced with toxins. This toxicity raises concerns, especially for species living in polluted waters.

In marinas, where water flow is limited, pollutants like TBT /TDML and copper from antifouling paints can accumulate, leading to significant water pollution. These pollutants can cause harm to marine life and pose health risks to humans. Without natural water flow to disperse these substances, the concentration remains high, creating a challenging environment for wildlife and recreational activities.

“By utilizing Eco Dry Docks, we achieve 100% elimination of traditional bottom paint and Zinc replacement, providing a sustainable solution for marinas.”

By using Eco Dry Docks underneath boats, we not only eliminate the use of harmful chemicals in the water but also provide boaters with a clean hull, reduced fuel consumption, minimal maintenance, and no need to replace anodes, effectively preventing corrosion.”
