Independent Tests

The American Bureau of Shipping (ABS) has conferred the “Certificate of Design Assessment” designation for the MarineLINE^® coating system, developed by Advanced Polymer Coatings (APC) to line and protect tanks in marine chemical tankers and related offshore uses.

The ABS is a leading ship classification society. The primary purpose of ABS is to determine the structural and mechanical fitness of ships and other marine structures for their intended purpose. "The Certification of Design Assessment” is represented by the ABS as the structural and mechanical fitness for a particular use or service in accordance with the organization’s rules and standards. Documentation was provided to and reviewed by the ABS on product specifications, performance data, standard of compliance, engineering analyses, and other data.

MarineLINE^® serves as a tank coating for maritime chemical tankers, to provide protection against corrosive chemicals, and also to ensure the product purity of the cargo carried in the tankers.
