What is F2 and how does it differ from traditional antifouling?Updated 16 days ago

F2 is an eco-friendly hybrid-polymer coating that effectively protects your boat from underwater fouling. Unlike traditional antifouling, F2 does not rely on biocides, toxins, or other harmful substances. Instead, it forms an extremely smooth, water-repellent surface that simply repels marine growth.

Here are the key differences:

• Mode of Action: Traditional antifouling continuously releases biocides into the water to kill organisms. In contrast, F2 physically prevents fouling from settling in the first place.

• Eco-Friendliness: F2 is 100% free of harmful substances such as biocides, silicones, PFAS/PTFE, and VOCs (volatile organic compounds).

• Durability: While traditional antifouling wears down over time and typically requires yearly renewal, F2 is extremely durable and, with proper application and care, lasts for at least 5 years.

Good to know: The effectiveness of F2 Eco has been confirmed in independent tests. See the test results from Endures B.V. here.
