The Propspeed foul-release coating system is a high-impact, low investment Energy Saving Technology with a compelling ROI. Designed for application to running gear and underwater metals, the biocide free foul-release coating system is proven to enhance vessel's efficiency and environmental sustainability, through the reduction of fuel and power consumption from the day it is applied.

Propeller roughness and accumulation of biofouling on running gear can significantly impact the performance over time, increasing the operational cost and environmental impact of a

vessel. The hydrophobic nature of the Propspeed system maintains vessel efficiency from the day of application throughout the vessel’s service cycle. 

From achieving Bureau Veritas type approval to obtaining exceptional results from third-party performance and efficiency testing, Propspeed has demonstrated its commitment to data-driven fleet optimization and improving performance.

TechBinder collaborated with Padmos to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the impact of Propspeed system on the performance of the fishing vessel “Windroos,” built by Padmos. "Windroos saw a remarkable 7.5% reduction in fuel consumption & 4.7% decrease in kilowatt usage at cruising speed, after Propspeed application. Impressed by these results, we’re now implementing Propspeed on all our vessels and recommending it to our customers.", said Ing. Maurits van Maaren, Naval Architect, Padmos.

Propspeed International is an established business based in New Zealand with warehouses in the USA and Netherlands, a global network of qualified applicators, and a team of in-field Technical Managers ready to train, supervise and support the integration and application of Propspeed.
