Maritime electrification pioneer Tidal Transit has deployed a range of innovative, eco-friendly maritime cleansers from sustainable cleaning solutions specialist Terrafend to help maintain its expanding fleet of crew transfer vessels (CTVs).
Designed to replace the multiple hazardous, solvent, caustic and acid-based cleaning products which dominate the current market, Terrafend’s NEMO range of water-based cleansers will help transform Tidal Transit’s vessel cleaning process with just two powerful, all-purpose solutions.
NEMO’s Super Concentrate and Power Gel are non-flammable, non-toxic, non-carcinogenic, non-bioaccumulating and contain very few volatile organic compounds (VOC), vastly improving crew and passenger safety while eliminating the risk of dangerous chemical leakage and damage to aquatic biodiversity.
The two products act together as a universal solution that can be used to tackle a range of contaminants, such as heavy rust and staining, unwanted coatings, hard carbon deposits, oil grease and fuels; and across all areas of the vessel, including tanks, the engine room, workshop, deck, galley, mess, cabins and common areas. Crucially, replacing dozens of separate chemicals with just two safe alternatives means simpler purchasing, greater efficiency and more convenient transport and storage.
Leo Hambo, Tidal Transit commercial director commented: “At Tidal Transit, we prioritise sustainability throughout the entire crew transfer pipeline, from the way we design and construct our vessels to how we operate and maintain our fleets. Terrafend’s multi-purpose, sustainable cleaning solutions will prove vital for further reducing our environmental impact, without compromising on performance, as we roll out the company’s innovative NEMO technology across our ever-growing fleet.”
Tom Sands, Terrafend CEO, added: “We’re delighted to be working alongside Tidal Transit to bring the environmental and safety benefits of our NEMO products to the offshore wind sector. This marks a major new milestone for Terrafend as we strive to disrupt the maritime industry by replacing harmful maritime cleaning chemicals with cleaner, safer, high-performance alternatives. Tidal Transit’s low-carbon crew transfer solutions, in conjunction with our sustainable cleaning technologies, will together help drive the maritime industry into a cleaner, greener era.”
