The 3rd GloFouling R&D Forum will take place from 4th to 8th November in Busan, South Korea.
The paints and coatings supplier Jotun has announced it will attend the third edition of GloFouling R&D Forum, which brings leading experts, policymakers and industry stakeholders to explore innovations, strategies, and policies for managing biofouling.
Petter Korslund, Regulatory Affairs Manager at Jotun Performance Coatings, will be among the speakers presenting “Biofouling Management through Digital Solutions.” His presentation will spotlight a specific technology designed to assist both the industry and regulatory authorities in effectively managing biofouling, ultimately contributing to a cleaner shipping industry.
“Ensuring that the industry is aware of and understands the solutions and technologies is important. That way regulators and stakeholders can set the scene for the industry based on experience-based knowledge and proven effects. As a leader within this topic, we are obliged to put focus on the challenges and drive the industry forward,” has stated Petter Korslund, Regulatory Affairs Manager at Jotun Performance Coatings.
Moreover, Petter Korslund will present Jotun’s approach to digital solutions, including HullKeeper, which delivers actionable data and intelligence on underwater hull condition and enables users to actively make faster and more informed decisions.
