In the 20 years since Plastimo introduced its antifouling in its catalogue, it has received praise from the press following impartial tests. Plastimo products are known for their effectiveness against fouling, but also for their ease of use.
An application adapted to private individuals
Indeed, the design office that develops the products works to facilitate the application, so that this antifouling is intended for individuals who do not necessarily have the experience and support of professionals. With an ideal viscosity, Plastimo antifouling can be applied "cleanly", without splashing. It also gives a real regularity to the layer, whether the application is made with a brush, roller or spray gun.
A short range that is easy to understand
Faced with a store shelf, which offers a wide variety of antifouling products, it is sometimes difficult to make a choice, to understand which pot is suitable for use on your boat. To solve this difficulty, Plastimo has worked to shorten and simplify its range. At Plastimo, you will find 3 products that cover all your needs:
-
Classic: a hard matrix for sailboats and motorboats. It is the best-seller, the most universal product.
-
Performance: a semi-erodible for sailboats and motorboats, with a very smooth appearance for excellent gliding.
-
Racing: a high-performance self-polishing agent for racing yachts and fast motor boats. It ensures optimal gliding in regattas and helps to save energy on fast boats. Also suitable for aluminium shells.
Informative labels
Taking advantage of the evolution of regulations, Plastimo has given its labels a new look in order to differentiate products with clear colour codes and indications. The information on the pots is informative with the essential requirements to make the right choice easily. The buyer is reassured as soon as he comes into the store.
A work on colour
Some antifouling colours have also been revised, with even brighter colours in the Racing version (a little like car body paint). Whites and reds have evolved and catch the light. Polar white in the Racing version, for example, is not an ordinary white, it is brighter than the average.
In addition to the classic colours (black, navy, blue or red), there is this polar white for Racing or grey for Performance.
