Lightspeed

Underwater lighting that remains clear and bright. Without the need for harsh maintenance. Build-up on underwater lighting reduces light output and compromises colour accuracy. Cleaning solves the problem temporarily and can cause structural damage to components. Lightspeed breaks the cycle.

What is Lightspeed?

Lightspeed is a specialist foul-release coating for underwater lighting in maritime applications. The system prevents marine growth from adhering to the surface of the light source without using biocides or other harmful substances.

What are the benefits?

  • Consistent light output and colour rendering
  • Reduced contamination and marine growth on lighting
  • No damage caused by cleaning or removing deposits
  • Reduced maintenance and lower operating costs
  • Extended lifespan of lighting components
  • Reliable submarine operation

How does it work?

Lightspeed creates a smooth, transparent surface to which marine growth can barely adhere. Any growth that does form will detach through water movement or can be removed safely without damage. It works mechanically rather than chemically. The coating releases no biocides or harmful substances into the water and has no effect on light output or colour.

Application within maritime projects

Lightspeed is applied on superyachts and maritime installations where light performance and maintenance intervals are closely connected. The coating is ideally suited to projects where routine cleaning would affect the surface or interfere with planning.

Reduced maintenance frequency leads to lower operating costs and a longer lifespan for the installation.

Application and execution by De Koninggroep

Lightspeed's performance depends entirely on proper preparation and application.

De Koninggroep manages the full process: cleaning, pretreatment, and controlled application in line with the relevant specifications. That way, the system performs as intended, even in the long term.
