Protan BlueSafe

Sustainable cover specially developed for ocean industries

Protan BlueSafe is a series of innovative and completely recyclable PVC covers that will help the aquaculture industry to solve many of the environmental challenges it faces.

Protan BlueSafe products meet the ocean industries’ need for sustainability, biosecurity and food safety.

The cover does not emit microplastics, is specially developed for use in salt water and is approved for drinking water storage.

Being completely smooth, organisms are 70 percent less likely to grow on its surface, thus reducing maintenance costs and increasing lifespan.

Protan’s technical textiles for ocean industries offer many environmental benefits:

  • 100% recyclable material, free from lead and microplastic.
  • Extremely durable: Long lifespan, minimal maintenance, low cost.
  • Approved for drinking water.
  • Reduces microplastic in the ocean.
  • At the end of their lifespan, our products can be recirculated via our recovery scheme reception scheme and thereafter subsequently reused/recycled.
  • Produced and developed in Norway.
