Ultrasonic Fouling Prevention

Ultrasonic Fouling Prevention for the Maritime Sector and Industry

Ultrasonic anti-fouling systems are not new to the market. The principle of the ultrasonic system is decades old and finds its applications in, for example, the medical world to kill certain cells (microorganisms). Additionally, the US Navy discovered that their submarines had biological growth on the ship hulls, but not in the area close to the sonar installation. This phenomenon was further investigated, and it became clear that there is an interesting relationship between ultrasonic sound waves and biological growth in general.

SmartFlow, Innovative Anti-Fouling System

Our advanced Anti-Fouling System is specifically designed for the maritime and industrial markets. The system prevents fouling on ship hulls, bows, and piping systems through high-frequency vibrations. This results in reduced maintenance, lower fuel costs, and an extended system lifespan.

Ultrasonic Fouling Prevention with High Efficiency

Ultrasonic Fouling Prevention effectively combats biofilm and fouling without the use of toxic coatings or chemicals. The powerful ultrasonic transducers generate micro-vibrations that prevent microorganisms from attaching to surfaces, providing a sustainable solution for ships, pipelines, and industrial installations.

Sustainable Reduction of Biofilm in Industry

In the industrial sector, our system provides a proven solution for reducing biofilm in industrial processes. Whether it’s cooling towers, piping systems, or heat exchangers, our technology prevents blockages and optimizes flow. This helps you save energy, maintenance costs, and production downtime.

Developed and Produced In-House

Our Anti-Fouling System is entirely designed and manufactured in-house. Thanks to European quality standards, we guarantee a long lifespan, reliable performance, and environmentally friendly operation. Each system is custom-built to suit local conditions and specific applications.

Sustainability

Prevention is more sustainable than repair

By preventing growth and deposits, we not only reduce maintenance and downtime but also emissions, fuel consumption, and environmental impact.

Sustainable efficiency starts with clean systems

Our technology allows ships and installations to operate cleaner and more efficiently – a small intervention with a big effect on people, the environment, and results.

Highly Effective and Efficient

Very effective and efficient against biofilm, fouling, marine growth on: ship hulls, box coolers, plate coolers, filters, drinking water systems, propellers, and bow thrusters.

Very effective and efficient against the growth of biofilm and clogging of fluid-bearing surfaces, such as: pipes, plate heat exchangers, tanks, and water pipes.

Technical Highlights

Many Advantages

Suitable for Maritime and Industrial Applications

The technology is widely applicable in both the maritime sector and industrial settings. From marinas and inland vessels to refineries and water treatment plants — wherever water flows, our system delivers proven results.

Sustainable Innovation for the Future

Our mission is clear: a cleaner, more efficient, and more sustainable European maritime and industrial infrastructure. With our Ultrasonic Fouling Prevention technology, you actively contribute to a future where maintenance costs decrease, performance improves, and the environment is protected.

The system requires minimal maintenance

Due to the fact that ultrasonic antifouling is a preventive system, it is necessary to start with a clean surface.
The installation of the ultrasonic anti-fouling system is very simple. The ship does not need to be in dry dock. The installation can be carried out at any time. Only hull protection installations require dry docking to access the ballast water tanks, if applicable.
