Marine growth and rust causes a variety of problems for ocean going ships.

​

Marine growth includes hard, soft and animal growth.

​

Hard growth includes hard algae that create the relatively thin but hard or flaky encrustations commonly found on hulls. Soft growth includes everything from the thin slime common to hulls, to the hairy and leafy algae that is usually found on the waterline and the running gear of a boat.

​

Animal growth causes the biggest problems and is the hardest to remove.  This growth includes invertebrate organisms such as mussels, barnacles, tubeworms, and others. These organisms can attach themselves anywhere on the hull, although they generally find the best anchorages in areas not protected by the bottom paint (running gear, vents and thru-hulls, bare spots in the paint, etc.)

​

Rust in turn causes billions of dollars of damage each year and is a constant battle to contain in the marine environment.

​

Green Earth’s anti-fouling and rust protection coating offers long term solutions to these problems while also offering a wave of benefits including:

• Significant reductions in the costs to scheduled and un-schedule maintenance programs

• Reduced drag on the hull from a smoother surface means increased yield and lower fuel costs

• Faster turn-arounds in port through easier cleaning in holds as the anti-fouling characteristics of this product reduces the cleaning time

• Reduced worker liability issues from the constant maintenance cycle using many different caustic products

Extensive testing and certification protocols have been followed including:

• NavSea (Naval Sea Systems Command)

• DODEMALL

• ABS

• GSA

This amazing technology will protect against weathering, oxidation, salt spray, stains, corrosion & pitting while reducing hard, soft and animal growth on hulls.

RAW Element's rust and corrosion conversion formula is a great start to reducing the impervious effects of rust on steel.  The unique formulation converts rust to a ferrous material and solidly bonds with all ferrous metals to create an impervious layer which temporarily protects metals from further oxidation until the metal can be permanently coated with an impervious rust coating.

​

There is no need for special personal protective equipment or breathing apparatus when using this formulation and disposal entails separating dislodged scale and debris from the solution prior to discharge to the storm water or sanitation systems.  Remaining product constituents will degrade to their natural state within 28 days without environmentally hazardous impacts to the ecosystem.

Ships holds and bilge can contain all manner of debris and efforts to keep these areas clean may mean removing and cleaning everything from crude oil to rice.

​

Bilge & Hold cleaner is designed to remediate and clean all manner of "soils" from the sidewalls and floors without damaging, scarring or altering the subsurface.

​

Fats, oils and greases will emulsify and then demulsify from in-organics and are easily recovered from the surface.  The remaining fluids and in-organics can be safely removed and disposed of without being classified as environmentally hazardous goods.

Calcium & Scale removal is quickly removed with RAW BIochem's readily biodegradable chelation formula.  Unlike commonly used acids, there are no concerns of damage to substrates as our chemical will not scar surfaces.  The micelle based formulation easily penetrates all surfaces and frees calcium, scale and mineral deposits.

​

There is no requirement for special equipment or procedures, extra ventilation or unique personal protection equipment.  Spent product is safely disposed of through normal disposal methods.

RAW Element's Canadian Government approved Heavy Duty Degreaser Sanitizer is an ideal companion for the galley or other sensitive areas where cleanliness is critical to safe operations.

​

This unique formulation not only cleans and degreases all manner of surfaces, it will also aid in sanitizing working surfaces using a proprietary mineral based sanitizing agent.  

​

The degreaser formulation easily removes burned on food stuffs, fats, oils and greases as well as biofilm and blood protein build-up.

These readily biodegradable degreaser/cleaner formulations safely work to remove heavy oil deposits and stains from all types of solid and semi-solid surfaces without damaging the surfaces.

​

It is safe for users and for the environment and carries an enviable 0-0-0-0 hazard rating.  These products are non-toxic, contain no VOC's, are non-flammable and non-caustic.  They are non-reactive and will not create new compounds or unknown substances when in contact with other chemicals or liquids.

​

Disposal is as easy as releasing through standard sewage system piping as they will not damage the environment.

The ability to separate and encapsulate the offending molecule means that the formerly dangerous and offensive odours are permanently and irreversibly made benign.

​

Once the odours have been neutralized, discharged fluid can be discarded without the stiff environmental and discharge fees associated with an environmental hazard.  There are no resulting solids, sludges or gas by-products to deal with.

​

Perfect for waste-water lagoons, temporary toilets, bilges and holds and oil/gas storage tanks.

The full range of hydraulic oils are ultimately biodegradable, bio-synthetic formulas which meet the many stringent ASTM standards required by European and US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) guidelines including the 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP) guidelines for EALs.

These high-performance hydraulic fluids are specially formulated to readily biodegrade and offer low toxicity in aquatic conditions and include an environmentally friendly, zinc-free (ash-less) additive system that meets or exceeds pump requirements.

They can be used in a wide variety of stationary and mobile hydraulic equipment and provide excellent pump lubrication and filterability under both normal and abnormal wet conditions.

They directly replace petroleum based hydraulic fluids and provide exceptional performance in high and
low-pressure hydraulic systems that require Anti-Wear (AW), anti-rust, anti-oxidation, anti-foam, and rapid demulsibility properties. 

These "green" Firearm Lubricants are specially formulated to be ultimately biodegradable and were developed to provide lubrication in a wide range of temperatures, with exceptional performance in extreme subzero temperatures. This product is for use in cleaning, lubricating and preservation of small and large caliber military weapons, operating in a very wide temperature range and meets military (MIL-PRF-63460E) specifications..

In addition, this lubricant can help clean and prevent deposits from forming that cause weapons to jam. The improved performance of Bio-Firearm Lubricant CLP is a benefit in all firearms, but especially noticeable with automatic weapons. This improved performance provides smoother mechanical action that is also noticeable in automatic weapons at temperatures below freezing and provide superior lubrication at very high temperatures above where conventional lubricants fail.

These specially formulated lubricants exceed most API requirements for gasoline and diesel engines.

The patented chemistry is blended into the highest quality bio-based and synthetic base stocks and provide extended engine life relative to other conventional oils without this proven chemistry.

The premium quality technology has documented records of excellent field performance in terms of:

• Superior wear and corrosion protection in both conventional valve train and overhead cams

• Superior viscosity stability and low volatility reduces emissions

• High temperature thermal stability and provides unsurpassed soot control
