develops graphene ship coatings that reduce fuel use and prevent toxic runoff near coral reefs

Drivers of Degradation Addressed
Hero backgroundGarbage & Solid Waste

Ravelware Technology is an industrial automation and deep-tech specialist that has developed advanced graphene-based materials from upcycled plastic and agricultural waste. One of its key innovations is a graphene-based, reef-safe ship coating that minimizes biofouling and lowers ship fuel consumption by up to 40% without discharging toxic chemicals into the water. By enabling cleaner maritime transport, this technology has the potential to reduce chemical contamination, heavy metal runoff, and carbon emissions near fragile coral reefs.
