NRG Marine

NRG Marine specializes in developing and supplying ultrasonic antifouling systems for the marine industry, designed to prevent the growth of bio-fouling organisms on vessel hulls and sea-chests. The company's key products include Sonihull and Sonihull Duo, which utilize ultrasonic technology to create a microscopic layer of cavitation that destroys algae and disrupts the food chain, thereby preventing barnacles, mussels, and other marine life from attaching to protected surfaces. This technology offers a non-toxic alternative to traditional antifouling methods that often rely on poisonous coatings, providing both environmental and operational benefits. By maintaining clean hulls, the systems help to reduce drag, which in turn lowers fuel consumption by up to 30% and decreases associated greenhouse gas emissions.

The company was founded in Coventry, United Kingdom, and is part of the NRGPRO Group. Its products cater to a wide range of vessels, including commercial ships, workboats, and leisure craft. The business model involves the direct sale of these ultrasonic systems, which are promoted as a cost-effective solution due to savings on fuel and the reduction of frequent hull cleaning and maintenance. The systems are engineered for straightforward installation and low power consumption.
