The preventative approach here is really smart. Addressing biofouling before heavy buildup happens not only reduces fuel costs but also eliminates the need for harsh chemicals and agressive cleaning methods. The 42% CAGR for this market makes sense given the regulatory prssure and the $30 billion annual cost of fouled hulls. Frequent cleaning over reactive maintenace is the kind of thinking that scales impact.
