Marine

Following years of dedicated research, Apex Industrial Chemicals Limited have established a portfolio of products designed specifically for the challenging marine environment. Covering the entire scope of chemical requirements, we are in a unique position to offer a cost effective, direct supply solution to all types of vessels.

Apex Industrial Chemicals offer a variety of products specific to the marine industry. Through many years of business operations and with continued development, obtained through discussion with the industry and research, we have a portfolio of products to provide a resolution to all your marine requirements, from general cleaning to more specific equipment maintenance operations. Strong consideration is given to the health and safety aspects and the environmental aspects of each of our products, starting with the design and development phases and running right through the process to manufacture and by utilising the most up to date chemistry available in the marketplace.

So that all ecotoxicity, biodegradation and bioaccumulation potential data used has a significant “safety buffer” above the MARPOL/ GHS requirements, we avoid the use of components adversely classified under the REACH Regulation.

Convert OI

CC48 - A double action rust converter and steel primer intended to give long term protection against corrosion when suitably over coated. This product converts existing adherent rust to a hard, non-reactive complex and then lays over this a layer of resin and pigment ready to receive any single pack top coat.

Anticorrosion

Protex F

PP19 - Rapidly dewaters metal surfaces and protects electrical connections against shorting in damp environments. Effectively protects against salt encrustation and provides penetrating lubrication to small or intricate mechanisms.

Anticorrosion

Protex W

PP20 - Tough waxy film provides good long-term protection of steel, etc., against humid and salty environments. Easily recoatable as required and easily removable for maintenance purposes.

Anticorrosion

RC Wash

RR26 - Specifically designed to convert rust into a stable inert film. RC Wash is ideal for converting rusty steel especially where sand or grit blasting is not possible due to cost, accessibility or environmental concerns.

Anticorrosion

BW Inhibitor

BB21 - BW Inhibitor is completely soluble in sea-water and forms a tightly bonded protective film on surfaces below water level.

Ballast Water Treatment

Marcide

MM20 - Highly effective bio-dispersant additive for sea-water, whether used in static or flowing systems. Prevents the adhesion of algae, shellfish and micro-organisms, thus controlling fouling of sea-water systems.

Ballast Water Treatment

AC-Clean

AA17 - Carefully selected emulsifiable solvent based technology to safely replace harmful chlorinated hydrocarbon formula to remove dust, greasy carbon deposits and oil fumes from air coolers.

Equipment Cleaning

Centri-Clean

CC49 - Centri-Clean effectively and thoroughly softens and removes the heavy tenacious deposits that bind to the discs and stack of centrifugal separators used for fuel and lube oil treatment.

Equipment Cleaning

Cool-Hib

CC50 - A multi-metal corrosion inhibitor for engine-cooling water, closed cooling systems and chilled water systems. (NOTE: this is an industrial product NOT to be dosed to potable water systems).

Fuel & Engine Cooling/Treatments

Fuel-Cide

FF03 - A highly effective biocide additive for fuel tanks and bunkerage, equally eradicate aerobic and anaerobic bacteria in the water phase and at the interface. Powerful Fuel-Cide Separates into lower water layer, preventing microbial growth including SRB to prevents microbial induced corrosion which can lead to tank/ pipe failures and filter blocking due to slimes.

Fuel & Engine Cooling/Treatments

PW Clor 5

PP24 - A specially formulated product for the dosing of potable water for accommodation on ships.

Potable Water/System Treatments

PW Stabiliser

PP23 - An environmentally friendly formulation of inorganic salt material, which possess water stabilising properties. Low marine toxicity, naturally occurring salts cause no added harm to the environment.

Potable Water/System Treatments

PW Tank-Chlor

PP21 - Designed for shock-dose treatment before returning potable water tanks and facilities to use after repair or maintenance. PW Tank-Chlor maintains its original chlorine level longer than ordinary solutions of hypochlorite and similar materials.

Potable Water/System Treatments

PW Tank-Dechlor

PP22 - Designed especially for use in Processes for the sterilisation of potable (drinking) water tanks and associated pipework, PW Tank-Dechlor quickly and safely destroys residual Chlorine in the used waters and rinsings, thus allowing simple and safe disposal to normal waste streams without breaching the environmental authority's rules.

Potable Water/System Treatments

Alu-Brite

AA03 - Part of the Apex Marine range of products, Alu-Brite is especially designed to clean and brighten aluminium and aluminium alloy parts safely. Suitable for cleaning all components in ships from large vertical surfaces to small, individual items, versatile Alu-Brite is easily applied by brushing, flooding, low-pressure spraying or immersion. May be used neat or diluted as desired.

Surface Cleaning & Treatment

De-Salt X

DD23 - Embedded crystals of soluble chlorides and sulphates can interfere with paint Overcoating and promote corrosion of steel beneath painted surfaces. Effective De-Salt X when added to rinse or blast water can eliminate this risk.

Surface Cleaning & Treatment

ER Degreaser

EE13 - An effective, ready-to-use, emulsifiable solvent degreaser, ER Degreaser removes the most stubborn oily or greasy dirt from machinery, engine parts, bilges and equipment and then rinses easily away with water.

Surface Cleaning & Treatment

Sonic

SS54 - Non-flammable citrus based SONIC combines effective cleaning and degreasing power with environmentally friendly formulation. Safely replacing old-fashioned paraffin and chlorinated type products, SONIC is water rinsable and ideal for use on engines, equipment, machinery, decks, bulkheads, etc.

Surface Cleaning & Treatment

Slipway XX

Effective cleaning of slipways and decks.
