A New Standard in Hull Cleaning

Towards Complete Collection and Filtration

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has issued new guidelines that will shape the future of underwater hull cleaning. By 2027, it is expected that all hull cleaning operations will require debris collection and water filtration systems, ensuring that no waste or biofouling is released back into the sea.

Around the world, ports and maritime authorities are already enforcing these standards, while shipping companies are adapting their maintenance policies to align with international environmental regulations and reduce their ecological footprint.

Fully operational and ready for immediate deployment.

Efficient and sustainable, ensuring complete waste recovery and water treatment.

Cost-effective and compliant, designed to meet IMO 2027 regulations and beyond.

With Hull Hero©, Randal Systems leads the transition toward a new era of cleaner, smarter, and more sustainable ship maintenance, setting the benchmark for responsible maritime innovation.

Hull Hero©

Smart Hull Cleaning

A practical, efficient, and fully operational system that responds to the new sustainability needs of the maritime industry.

Hull Hero Micro

Small Machine. Big Difference.

Hull Hero Micro is the compact hull cleaning and polishing system with integrated debris collection and filtration. Designed for precision in confined areas, it delivers the same professional performance as its industrial counterpart — ensuring efficiency, sustainability, and full underwater autonomy.

Sustainability

Innovation and sustainability for the oceans

At Randal Systems, sustainability is a true commitment to the future of the maritime sector. With Hull Hero©, we have developed a solution that lowers operating costs while protecting marine biodiversity, reducing emissions, and contributing to the decarbonization of maritime transport.

Hull Hero© is more than an underwater cleaning system: it is our commitment to a future where innovation and sustainability sail together.

At Randal Systems, we believe that technological innovation only makes sense when it goes hand in hand with a true commitment to sustainability and environmental protection. Our flagship system, Hull Hero©, is a clear example of how engineering can deliver solutions that reduce operational costs while generating a positive impact on the marine environment.

The maritime sector faces a double challenge: the need to operate more efficiently and the responsibility to minimize its environmental footprint. Ship hulls accumulate fouling and bio-incrustations that increase fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions, while also encouraging the spread of invasive species. Traditional cleaning methods are not only costly and inefficient but also generate waste that often ends up polluting aquatic ecosystems.

Energy cost savings

Sustainability is not limited to water protection. By improving the energy efficiency of vessels, Hull Hero© directly reduces fuel consumption and, in turn, lowers greenhouse gas emissions. This makes a tangible contribution to the decarbonization of maritime transport, one of the key objectives of the global climate agenda.

Environmentally Compliant Waste Collection

Hull Hero© offers a sustainable, efficient, and safe alternative. Thanks to its patented waste recovery technology, our system captures up to 98% of the materials removed during cleaning, including biofouling, paint residues, and microplastics. This prevents harmful waste from being released into the sea and actively contributes to the protection of biodiversity and the health of port environments.

Aligned with the UN 2030 Agenda

Our commitment is fully aligned with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

SDG 13 (Climate Action): reducing CO₂ emissions.

SDG 14 (Life Below Water): protecting marine biodiversity and preventing invasive species.

SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure): developing sustainable and competitive industrial technology.
