Sicomin’s InfuGreen 810 was used to vacuum infuse the hull, deck and superstructure of a 26m, 52 tonne Couach Fly 86/2600 superyacht.
Whilst Couach traditionally used polyester resin systems, Sicomin has worked with the Couach R&D team for the past four years to test other epoxy resin systems, culminating in the implementation of Infugreen 810 and other bio-based epoxies in the latest models.
InfuGreen 810 gets 38% of its carbon content from plant based sources and has DNV GL type approval.
“With Sicomin’s InfuGreen 810 we have been able to build our Fly 86/2600 yacht in a more responsible and sustainable way, whilst also producing a lighter, stiffer, and more durable composite structure that reduces our impact on the environment,” said a spokesperson from Couach.
