Marine & Watercraft
Improving Visibility & Durability
Marine vessels of all kinds are susceptible to the effects of water, salt, impact, abrasion, chemicals, and UV radiation, and wear.
Give every vessel the durability and visual clarity it needs to perform over time.
FSICT optically clear, premium anti-fog coatings and coated film dramatically improve the visibility, durability, appearance and service life of boating and marine parts and accessories in the most demanding sea conditions and dry dock environments.
They combine exceptional optical clarity with outdoor weatherability and premium resistance to fogging, scratches, impact, chemical attack and UV radiation, hydrophilic water sheeting, and they will not discolor with exposure to sunlight.
Our parent, SDC Technologies, also offers a wide range of complementary CrystalCoat® protective hard coating solutions for marine applications.
We provide premium anti-fog coating solutions for all marine vessel components.
