Organa Gardens International Inc. (OGI) reports that its powder coating and equipment division, Integrated Green Technologies LLC (IGT) has successfully completed field trials for its newly developed Duraspeed powder coating for boat propellers, drives (IPS), shafts, bow thrusters, trim tabs and keel coolers.

The trials were conducted under the control of the Volvo Penta (Inboard performance system) warrantee facility in Fort Myers, Florida. The coating was applied using the patented IGT #100-B electrostatic thermal spray powder gun system, which allows for the powder coating of parts without the need for a bake oven.

According to OGI, IGT's proprietary foul release coating contains no environmentally harmful components and is designed to hinder the growth of marine life on the surface of the parts while at the same time, due to the extremely smooth surface of the coating, allow for minimum resistance between the part surface and the water.

OGI reports that this feature, in test data running in parallel with other smooth coatings, has proven "to equal or exceed all others" both in RPM increase and fuel efficiency.

Further inspection of the coating in comparison to others are said to have revealed that all coatings except for Duraspeed coating required underwater cleaning within 6 weeks of operation.

Joe Moretti, CEO of IGT commented, "We are most excited introducing Duraspeed to our line of marine products. Moreover, the marine industry will welcome the product as it will solve many long and short term issues. All marine experts should and will be introduced to Duraspeed. I believe this product will have a profound impact on the marine industry as we know it."
