Jotun and United Arab Shipping Company (UASC) have reached agreement on the provision of advanced antifouling coatings for 11 new build container vessels. The contract is part of UASC’s ambitious US$2.3bn new building programme.
This agreement marks the first time Jotun and UASC have worked together on marine antifouling hull coatings.
UASC, a global shipping company with more than 12,000 customers, has committed itself to operate one of the world’s youngest container fleets, with a strong focus on optimal efficiency and outstanding environmental standards. The new 14,500 TEU and 18,800 TEU vessels demonstrate this ambition, with cutting edge design and ‘LNG ready’ classification from DNV GL.
