Marine Growth Prevention Systems (MGPS)

Marine growth prevention eliminates the settlement of macro biofouling organisms on the ship’s interior piping systems, thus creating less waste due to the longer lifecycle of the pipes.

Cathelco® marine growth prevention systems (MGPSs) for seawater pipework are easy and economical to install, and they can be found on more than 50,000 ships worldwide. Designed to eliminate blockages caused by barnacle and mussel growth in seawater cooling lines, the systems are available for vessels of every size including mini systems for luxury yachts.
