Clean Chemistry from Start to Finish

Brunel’s systems are unique in their ability to deliver both operational and environmental value. This means no harm to marine ecosystems, no risk to applicators, and no pollution of oceans.

Our signature products contain:

• No VOCs

• No biocides

• No heavy metals

• No solvents

• No toxic outgassing or leaching

In production, this also means:

• Minimal waste and low energy use

• Less packaging

• Lower transport emissions

• Factory-controlled quality with minimal resource input

At application, it means:

• A simple two-coat system

• No health risks from fumes or overspray

• No hazardous prep or conditioning

• No flammability or combustion risk

In operation, it means:

• Ultra-smooth surfaces that reduce drag

• Lower fuel burn and fewer emissions

• No erosion and no microplastic release

• Longer drydock cycles

The Real-World Impact of 0 VOCs

Brunel coatings eliminate one of the largest environmental risks in conventional marine paints: volatile organic compounds. In third-party testing, the difference in VOC output between traditional antifouling systems and Brunel coatings is both measurable and significant.

Over a 10-year period, a typical vessel using Brunel coatings avoids more than 5,000 kilograms of VOC emissions.

This is not a theoretical benefit. It is a documented and quantifiable advantage, supported by application data and certified testing.

Independently Certified Environmental Performance

Brunel is the only marine coating system to receive formal environmental certification from Det Norske Veritas (DNV). This certification confirms the full lifecycle safety and environmental integrity of our products. It also reinforces Brunel’s position as a leader in clean, high-performance coating technology.

Fuel Savings and Emissions Reduction

One of the strongest environmental advantages of Brunel coatings is the impact on vessel efficiency. Our ultra-smooth surfaces reduce drag and resist fouling without relying on toxic additives. As a result, vessels require less engine power to maintain speed, which leads to lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions.

This allows shipowners to shrink their environmental footprint while also extending coating life and reducing operating costs.

Supporting the Future of Clean Shipping

Brunel coatings are ideal for shipowners who are working toward compliance with international environmental standards, including IMO 2020. They also support carbon credit eligibility, ESG reporting, clean port certifications, and long-term sustainability initiatives.

Our products offer a practical path to environmental responsibility without compromising protection, durability, or application flexibility.

Brunel is the only coating system to receive DNV environmental certification for outstanding sustainability and product performance.

Protect your fleet, protect your people, and protect the waters you operate in.

Brunel Coatings delivers environmental performance without compromise.
