I · Underwater Hull & Protection
Copper Coat application
An epoxy resin with a high copper content that protects the underwater hull for many seasons — without yearly antifouling.
01 The service
Copper Coat is a different approach to underwater protection: instead of antifouling every year, a hard copper-loaded epoxy coating is applied once and keeps working for many years.
Its success depends almost entirely on preparation. The hull must be taken back to the substrate, be dry, and the application must be done in controlled conditions at the correct thickness.
02 How we work
The process, step by step.

Removal of all old antifouling by sandblasting
- 02
Moisture check and, if needed, an anti-osmosis base
- 03
Successive coats applied wet-on-wet
- 04
Resin curing
- 05
Light abrading to activate the copper before launch

03 FAQ
Your most common questions.
Does it need maintenance?
A simple wash when the boat is lifted is recommended and, when needed, a light abrade to “wake up” the copper.
Can it go over existing antifouling?
No. The hull must first be completely stripped of old antifouling, usually by sandblasting.
Hull sandblasting
Removing old antifouling layers and growth down to a clean substrate — the right foundation for every protective system that follows.

Polyester osmosis repair
A complete osmosis treatment: removing the affected layer, drying, repairing and applying a new waterproof barrier to the hull.
Learn more
Anti-osmosis protection
An epoxy barrier system that seals the hull and protects it from moisture ingress — on new or repaired boats.
