Selektope-containing products for leisure boats

Products using Selektope are available in some regions already. As regulatory hurdles are lifted even higher than in shipping in many countries, Selektope may stand out as one of very few options in some regions, such as Japan and the US. Given uncertainties in the regulatory landscape among memberstates in the EU, new antifouling technology is expected to be held back for a foreseeable future.
