Three days to go, and then two pairs of ships.

following receipt in March of two 82K bulk carriers (82,000 tons) from Jiangsu Xinhantong Ship Heavy Industries Co., Ltd(AQUAVITASOL) (Hull No: HT82-221) and "VINCENTTALISMAN" (Hull No.: HT82-236), The Japanese shipowner, Nisshin Shipping, will receive a 63.5K bulk carrier (63,500 tons) from Nantong Xiangyu Marine Equipment Co., Ltdon April 27 (next Monday) for "WESTERNSINGAPORE" (Hull: XY027)This is another outcome of the PPG cross-border cooperation projectXY027traces the beginning and end of cross-border cooperation projects
Japanese shipowner Nisshin Shipping is one of Japan's three independent shipowners, according to global ship data provider and ship valuation service vessel Vesselvalue value, currently, Nikko's fleet operates 73 ships, including 49 bulk carriers and 24 oil tankersMeanwhile, Nikko Is in the midst of a massive fleet expansion, with 42 new shipbuilding orders from shipyards in Japan and China, Jiangsu Hantong / New Hantong Shipyard has 8 82K bulk carrier orders, has delivered 7(HT82-217/218/219/220/234/221/236), only 1 (HT82-235) is currently under construction Ship delivery is expected in May this year; Nantong Xiangyu Seapacking Co., Ltdhas 19 orders for 63.5K bulk carriers, and now it has delivered (XY023/XY024/XY025) XY027 will be delivered on April 27; and the remaining new shipbuilding orders are in progressPPG has the honor of being a new shipbuilding coating supplier to Nikko Shipping Company, helping to improve the performance of new shipbuilding to meet navigational challengesPPG forces to meet future navigational challenges
it is well known that ships face many challenges in the course of navigation, which often face two situations:harsh marine environment, such as the corrosiveness of seawater and the erosion of sea breezes,pollution of the waters of the underwater parts of the hull, affecting the efficiency of the ship's operation and power consumption face these two big problems, PPG has its own tricks heavy anti-corrosion solution - PPGSIGMACOVER™380 epoxy paint multi-functional general-purpose epoxy anti-corrosion primer based on pure epoxy technology
suitable for new shipbuilding and repair ships, is the ship's casing, ballast, dry hoe and deck coating kit of the preferred coating
suitable for new shipbuilding, ship docking and self-maintenance
in the design of the expected environment with excellent wear performance
Suitable for immersion areas (ballast tank, hull outer plate), with good corrosion and water resistance
good flexibility, compatible with well-designed cathode protection system
good drying and curing performance, convenient for year-round construction use
construction convenience, reduce productivity meet the requirements of IMOPSPC ballast tank coating
high-performance anti-fouling solutions - PPGSIG™MAADVANCED
Low traction friction resistance, self-lubricated and linearly polished hydrolyzed Wuxi self-polished anti-fouling paint
unique self-lubrication technology effectively reducenavigation altogether, achieve fuel saving, average fuel saving: 5% suitable for new shipbuilding and docking repair maintenance works, suitable for all types of ship types and broad ship speed coating linear self-polishing performance to be further enhanced, can be stable and efficient release of sufficient anti-fouling material, anti-fouling cycle Up to 90 months
surface activity is stable and durable, not easy to form soaping layer
self-lubrication technology improves static polishing efficiency, effectively extends the duration of static suspension
high solid content helps to improve coating production efficiency
Bombardier independent research and development technology products, with PPG controllable surfactivity state polymer (CSP) technology patent
in addition to the above difficult problems, according to the cabin use, PPG selected targeted for drinking water storage tank/ The two-component solvent-free amine-cured epoxy paint PPGIgMAGUARD™CSF585, high-end epoxy dry chamber protective coating PPGSIGMASHIELD™MTC series based on second-order sub-cross-linking pre-concentration curing technology PPG's cooperation with Nikko Shipping Company is actually a cross-border cooperation project, with the owner of The Ship's owner in Japan and the new shipyard in China However, in the process of cooperation, the business teams of the two countries maintain communication and cooperation to ensure the smooth implementation of the project As can be seen from the current delivery, cross-border cooperation is in good shape it's worth noting that such heavyweight shipbuilding orders make Nikko shipping the biggest project in China at the moment I also believe that the complete completion of the project, will become PPG in the history of marine coatings business another classic case back in the past, PPG industrial protection and marine coatings business has a long history, classic cases are numerous Whether it's a new ship building or an old ship that needs to be maintained and built, PPG provides coating solutions from a professional and technical team to protect customer assets and reduce operating costs, depending on customer needs and realities In the future, PPG's protection will also protect more ships from far away
