Smarter Hull Protection Without Paint or Chemicals

Ultrasonic antifouling technology prevents marine growth from attaching to your hull by emitting targeted ultrasonic frequencies. The result is a cleaner hull, reduced maintenance, and improved efficiency—without harming the marine environment.

Why Ultrasonic Antifouling

OTraditional antifouling relies on coatings, chemicals, and frequent cleaning. Ultrasonic antifouling offers a modern alternative by stopping fouling before it starts.

By transmitting controlled ultrasonic energy through the hull, the system disrupts the ability of organisms to settle, reducing growth across the entire underwater surface.

How the System Works

Ultrasonic transducers are permanently mounted inside the hull. These emit high-frequency signals that create a microscopic vibration within the hull structure, preventing biofouling from attaching.

The system operates continuously while the vessel is afloat, requiring minimal power and no ongoing consumables.

  • Reduces hull fouling and slime buildup
  • Extends the life of antifouling paint
  • Low power consumption
  • No chemicals or toxins released
  • Reduced haul-outs and cleaning costs
  • Suitable for leisure and commercial vessels

How It Works


Farraige Dynamics ultrasonic antifouling technology protects marine surfaces from the effects of biofouling by preventing organisms from attaching in the first place.
Ultrasonic transducers installed within the vessel emit controlled ultrasonic waves that travel through the hull structure. These waves create an ultra-thin, high-pressure layer at the boundary between the hull surface and the surrounding water.
This microscopic pressure zone disrupts the ability of microorganisms to settle and attach, significantly reducing the buildup of fouling without the use of chemicals or coatings.
