CO2 Abated
The International Maritime Organization has a goal of net-zero greenhouse-gas emissions for global shipping by or around 2050. Hullbot service can reduce emissions by 10-40% across fleets. Join us in our mission to reduce half a gigaton CO2e per year by 2035.
Solving the oceans biggest problems
Carbon emissions
Biofouling on hulls causes increased fuel usage, leading to more than 1% of global greenhouse gas emission. Keeping hulls clean saves fuel and reduces emissions.
Microplastics and toxic paints
Antifouling coatings release toxic biocides and are the largest direct source of ocean microplastics. Proactive grooming enables the use of non-toxic coatings and improves coating life.
Biosecurity
Nearly 80% of invasive marine species transfer is caused by biofouling on hulls. Bioinvasion threatens ecosystems worldwide.
