As shipyards invest in the next generation of vessels, they need a coatings partner from the first day of construction. PPG marine coatings set the industry standard for corrosion protection and performance, all while supporting durability regulatory compliance and onboard efficiency. We enable the next generation of energy-efficient ships meet their sustainability goals and deliver reliable performance.
PPG offers high-performance primers to specialized linings and topcoats, delivering tailored technologies to protect every part of a vessel – including hulls, superstructures, interiors, decks and even ballast and freshwater tanks. Our innovations help reduce power consumption and greenhouse gas emissions of vessels, while defending against harsh cargoes and abrasive conditions at sea.

Ultra-low-friction, premium copper-free antifouling with a strong emphasis on performance, sustainability and aesthetics. This unique formula integrates photodegradable biocides for an ultra-smooth surface, helping achieve 25% in greenhouse gas emissions savings. It also provides outstanding color retention throughout the entire service life of the vessel.

Specifically developed to provide maximum hull protection against fouling with an ultra-strong biocide package, this premium antifouling helps reduce energy and lower total operational costs for vessels.

This universal, high solids epoxy primer, certified for long-term corrosion protection is designed to suit modern shipyard building and drydocking practices. It provides durable corrosive protection for harsh conditions and is ideal for use on WBT and crude oil tanks and is compliant with IMO PSPC class approval.

This premium two-component, high-build phenolic epoxy tanklining delivers extremely high chemical resistance to a wide range of aggressive cargoes, helping set a new standard for sustainable tank protection.

A fast-curing epoxy formulation allows for a quick return to service, while its abrasion and impact resistance protect against gouging and cargo damage at high temperatures. Its formulation enables maximum flexibility for cargo switching.

A hull coating designed for all vessel types and speeds, with particular effectiveness during slow steaming. Its controlled surface-active polymers (CSP) binder composition lowers friction and suppresses turbulent flow for average fuel savings of 5%.

Premium antifouling coating featuring self-release binder technology built on controlled surface-active polymers (CSP). Enables self-lubrication and release, helping reduce friction, minimize idle time impact and improve fuel efficiency.

With outstanding anticorrosive properties, this universal epoxy primer and coating was designed to protect key areas such as water ballast tanks. It can be overcoated by a wide range of topcoats and is suitable for use on many vessel areas.
