The company was formed in response to recent IMO Guidance recommending the use of 'best available technology' and encouraging all major Ports and the wider shipping industry to implement eco-friendly hull-cleaning technology. The main aims are mitigating the spread of invasive species and also to reduce the amount of fouling or paint residues which enter the marine environment.

The 'eco-friendly' technology referred to above relates to our hull cleaning system, designed and licenced by TecHullClean. The unique brush-karts use suction to collect biofouling and paint resiues as they are cleaned off the hulls of the vessel. The waste is then filtered aboard the dive support vessel/workboat via a multi-layer filtration system, with paint sediments and biofouling waste being captured for proper disposal on land.

Though underwater ship husbandry is our main focus, we also have the expertise and experience which enables us to undertake diving works in support of Civil Engineering and Construction projects in Gibraltar.
