Jotun, one of the world's leading manufacturers of paints and coatings, and the Italian owner Ignazio Messina & C. commercial agreement under which the Jolly ship Rosa will use the Hull Skating Solutions (HSS) solution including the innovative HullSkater developed in working with Kongsberg, to ensure proactive cleaning and hull inspections. The solution combines high-performance coatings performance, proactive monitoring and technical support with HullSkater, while also offering a guarantee of hull cleaning. The agreement for HSS, officially signed during a ceremony at Jotun's headquarters in Sandefjord, in Norway, adds to the Jotun solution portfolio already used by Messina on its fleet, which has already used customized antifouling systems and Jotun HPS on other ships.

Thanks to this agreement, it is expected that the solutions provided by Jotun on the ships of Ignazio Messina & C. will make it possible to reduce CO2 emissions per year by approximately 11,800 tonnes compared to the average products on the market and calculated according to ISO 19030.
