A Coating Of Intersleek 900takes Fastcat To A Greater Level

摘要

UK- based ferry company, Wightlink Ltd., has firmly adopted International Paint's Intersleek 900. The 160 year-old ferry company decided to use International Paints' Intersleek 900 on three of its vessels in 2007. The FastCat Ryde, Our Lady Pamela and FastCat Shanklin all had their vertical sides coated with Intersleek 900. The use of Intersleek 900 leads to a reduction in CO_2 emissions, improved fuel consumption and a reduction in slipping requirements. The vessels have not been taken out of service since the coating was applied two years ago. Prior to using Intersleek 900, Wightlink was removing the vessels from service every couple of months for cleaning.
