Regulations have resulted in changes to painting procedures. Do you believe that under this pressure you have to develop more technological and environ- mental friendly solutions much more often than it should be? Does it make you anxious and uncomfortable?
Painting procedures regulations are not applicable to us, since our product is not re- lated to painting jobs, however we do feel general sector movement to environmental friendly solutions, thus we have developed our own Equalizer system, in order to be in line with current and forthcoming requirements for greener shipping technologies.
